Excerpt from Sampling Methods for Terrestrial Amphibians and Reptiles Concern about the value of old-growth Douglas-fir forests to wildlife in the Pacific Northwest began escalating in the late 19705. The available information on wildlife habitat relationships suggested that as many as 75 species including amphibians, birds, and mammals, could be dependent on old-growth forests. The usda Forest Service chartered the old-growth Forest Wildlife Habitat Program to investigate the role old growth plays in maintaining viable populations of wildlife. It was apparent that broad surveys of vertebrate communities would be necessary to determine which species were truly closely associated with old-growth forests. Insufficient guidance on techniques, procedures, and sample sizes was available in the existing literature. We assembled a team of researchers from universities and Federal agencies to conduct pilot studies to develop sampling protocols and to test the basic experimental design for contrasting the wildlife values of young, mature, and old-growth forests. The sampling protocols resulting from the pilot studies were implemented in 1984-86 across broad areas of the Cascade Range in southwestern Washington and in Oregon, the Oregon Coast Ranges, and the Klamath Mountains of southwestern Oregon and northern California. Naturally, improvements were made to the protocols as time passed. A tremendous amount of experience in sampling was gained.

“Authoritative and comprehensive—provides an up-to-date description of the tool box of methods for inventorying and monitoring the diverse spectrum of reptiles. All biodiversity scientists will want to have it during project planning and as study progresses. A must for field biologists, conservation planners, and biodiversity managers.”—Jay M. Savage, San Diego State University “Kudos to the editors and contributors to this book. From the perspective of a non-ecologist such as myself, who only occasionally needs to intensively sample a particular site or habitat, the quality and clarity of this book has been well worth the wait.”—Jack W. Sites, Jr.

Biological Diversity provides an up to date, authoritative review of the methods of measuring and assessing biological diversity, together with their application. The book's emphasis is on quantifying the variety, abundance, and occurrence of taxa, and on providing objective and clear guidance for both scientists and managers. This is a fast-moving field and one that is the focus of intense research interest. However the rapid development of new methods, the inconsistent and sometimes confusing application of old ones, and the lack of consensus in the literature about the best approach, means that there is a real need for a current synthesis. Biological Diversity covers fundamental measurement issues such as sampling, re-examines familiar diversity metrics (including species richness, diversity statistics, and estimates of spatial and temporal turnover), discusses species abundance distributions and how best to fit them, explores species occurrence and the spatial structure of biodiversity, and investigates alternative approaches used to assess trait, phylogenetic, and genetic diversity. The final section of the book turns to a selection of contemporary challenges such as measuring microbial diversity, evaluating the impact of disturbance, assessing biodiversity in managed landscapes, measuring diversity in the imperfect fossil record, and using species density estimates in management and conservation.
