The plumb line is a vertical straight line.
Transect sampling is a method used in ecological studies to assess the distribution and abundance of species within a specific area. It involves laying out a predetermined line or path, called a transect, across a habitat and systematically sampling at regular intervals along this line. This approach helps researchers collect data on various ecological parameters, such as plant density or species diversity, while minimizing bias and ensuring that the sampling represents the overall environment. It's particularly useful in studying gradients or changes in ecosystems, such as those influenced by environmental factors.
