	abstract = {<p>Sampling for Natural Resource Monitoring provided a comprehensive introduction to natural resource sampling design for students, scientists, and managers.\&nbsp; Following a brief introduction. \&nbsp;The book begins with a section summarizing the principles and major decisions required to develop an effective sampling strategy.\&nbsp; The remainder of the book is divided among three sections addressing sampling in space (for surveys), and in time and space-time (for monitoring).\&nbsp; Each of these sections includes chapters on sampling for global and local quantities in space.\&nbsp; Within each chapter, the author\&rsquo;s describe both \&ldquo;design-based\&rdquo; approaches of classical survey sampling and \&ldquo;model-based\&rdquo; approaches associated with geostatistics and time series analysis.\&nbsp; Inclusion of both types of approaches in a single volume allows the authors to show how they can complement each other.\&nbsp; For example, spatial models can be used to optimize sample sizes for design-based sampling strategies.\&nbsp; Detailed appendices provide additional information on optimization algorithms, kriging, and time-series modeling.</p>
