SBSM - Calculation of Duplicate Sub-Samples from Primary
8-325
Data

This program is designed for use following a standard sub-
sampling routine. Such a routine takes duplicate sub-samples
of materials which would be too laborious to sort completely.
It specifically refers to mixed vegetation cropped from quad-
rats of given size but could be applied to any analogous sam-
pling situation. A sub-sub-sampling procedure is incorporated
to allow for materials within the sub-samples which are still
too laborious to sort, in this specific instance, live and dead
plant parts. The output data can be used in an analysis of
variance to test for effects of both sampling and sub-sampling.
