Survival measurement
Fixed coordinate sample plots, revisited on schedule, reported with sample size and error.
On fixed sample plots recorded by coordinates and revisited on a schedule, with the planted count known in advance. Plots are never reselected, because choosing fresh plots each time allows healthy patches to be favoured without anyone intending to cheat. The count that matters is the one after a full dry season.
What this includes
- Sample plot design and coordinate marking
- Baseline planted count per plot
- Scheduled revisits including post dry season
- Height and stem diameter recording
- Satellite vegetation index cross check
- Published reporting with uncertainty stated
- What you receiveOutput
- Survival rate with sample size and margin of error, published per block
- When you need itTiming
- From the first year, then at every scheduled revisit.
Reselecting plots at each visit, or counting before a dry season. Both produce numbers that look good and mean nothing.
Delivered by our own team together with vetted specialist partners and, where the question needs it, a named member of our expert bench. We tell you who is doing the work before the engagement starts.
