smapling plants; via quadrats, which can also sample slow moving animals
- point quadrat (frame conatining horrizontal bar, at set intervals along bar, long pins pushed through and reach ground, each species touched recorded 
- frame quadrat (square frame divided into grid of equal sections, type/number of species within each section recorded 


- quadrats should be used after a random sampling technique, is studying distribution accross area of land that varies, quadrats placed systematically along transect  

- use all sampling techniques to measure species richness/evenness
