[PCA] WEB: Measuring and Monitoring Plant Populations

[Olivia Kwong]

The subject has come up lately of the BLM Publication 1730-1 Measuring and
Monitoring Plant Populations.  This was a 1998 project in conjunction with
BLM's California State Office, The Nature Conservancy, and Alderspring
Ecological Cosulting.

Although it's out of print right now, the entire thing is available as a
PDF on the web.  The file is 5.3 megs (492pp + covers), so it's not tiny.
It's a bit large to print out the whole thing unless you really really
want it, but the pdf should allow you to print out sections or simply view
it on your computer.

You can find the link for the PDF along with other potentially useful
publications on the BLM National Science & Technology Center's Technical
Reference page http://www.blm.gov/nstc/library/techref.htm

Since it's such a large file, it's probably better to right click on the
link and Save target/link as... to put it on your harddrive before opening
it.

I'll stick a link to it from the PCA website the next time I update it.
