RAPELD - A brief overview.

Our objectives were to develop a method that would be appropriate for long-term ecological studies, but that would permit rapid surveys to evaluate biotic complementarity and land-use planning in Amazonia. The Amazon basin covers about 7 million km2 . Therefore, even a sparse coverage, with one sample site per 10.000 km2 , would require about 700 sampling sites.
