Modeling sampling strategies for determination of zooplankton abundance in ballast water.
Ballast water has been a major source of non-indigenous species introductions. The International Maritime Organization has proposed performance standard that will establish an upper limit for viable organisms in discharged ballast. Here we test different sampling efforts for zooplankton in ballast water on a commercial vessel. We fit different probability density functions to find the most repr...
متن کاملA Simple Device for Gravimetric Sampling.
In view of the increased importance attached to the gravimetric sampling of airborne dust in mines and other working places, it was recently decided to start regular gravimetric sampling in the experimental animal dusting rooms in this Unit. As no suitable sampling instrument was available, a Hexhlet dust sampler was modified by fitting it with a probe in place of the elutriator. This instrumen...
متن کاملBallast water sampling as a critical component of biological invasions risk management.
The human mediated transfer of harmful organisms via shipping, specifically via ballast water transport, leading to the loss of biodiversity, alteration of ecosystems, negative impacts on human health and in some regions economic loss, has raised considerable attention especially in the last decade. Ballast water sampling is very important for biological invasions risk management. The complexit...
متن کاملWater sampling: Traditional methods and new approaches in water sampling strategy
This article outlines the issues that need to be considered when planning water sampling for chemical monitoring and provides guidance on the work required. In addition, it considers the limitations associated with current monitoring practices based on spot sampling and presents some existing technologies that may used to complement standard spot sampling. a 2007 Elsevier Ltd.

متن کاملA New Exponential Type Estimator for the Population Mean in Simple Random Sampling
In this paper, a new estimate of exponential type of auxiliary information to help simple random sampling without replacement of the finite population mean is introduced. This new estimator with a few other estimates using two real data sets are compared with the mean square error.
