that where transects cross, organisms or candy at the intersections will be recorded multiple times, falsely increasing their perceived abundance To prevent this, the transects should be laid parallel to each other (an equal distance apart) Special considerations at your study site will determine how you place the transects in the field
Locate transects, if possible, with one end along a road (pollution source) and the other end remote from the road The transects should be large enough to contain several suitable lichen-festooned trees and downed branches, probably about 10-15m wide and 25- 50 m long Ideally, each group of 3-4 students will have their own transect
biodiversity study of organisms in one local habitat: plot studies and line transects A transect is a long, narrow sampling area, while a plot study is a square area that can be divided into subplots Transects extend over a longer portion of a study area than a plot does, resulting in a larger sample of different plant species
transects Location of transects has three primary requirements: 1 The site under each transect must be homogeneous If an entire cluster of two to five transects is to represent a single site, vegetation and soil surface condi-tions under each of the transects must be homogeneous and similar to each other 124 Locating a Sample Area
Using Quadrats – there are several ways to collect data using quadrats and transects; we have included instructions and handouts for three basic types Methods can vary depending on the habitat, question of interest, and researcher, to provide the most accurate and repeatable data ∞ Transect Data – Uses only a transect line

Transects can, for example, be recorded during a lunch break or while walking the dog If you want to start a transect on an important site, try to link in with other recorders to share the transects to get good coverage throughout the year

Land use transects with cars a potential tool for students
visited area The car transects showed that for most land use categories 25-38 km length of transects are necessary to obtain relatively stable results, however few land use units still remain variable For some land use categories, the transect work provided even comparable results with the 2006 land use study Main constraint during students’ work has been defining a precise

WINTERING POPULATION OF COMMON RAVEN (CORVUS
This species is poorly studied in Romania and the wintering density and behaviour are almost unknown Using car transects we studied winter population of Common Raven from Eastern Moldova region during winter season 2011 – 2012 (from November 2011 until February 2012) We found a density of 0 532 individuals/ km2 for the entire season During our studies we observed a selection of agriculture fields (w
