Sampling comments: "Two one-ha square plots were established, one each in site KP and MV. Field work on quantitative inventory was carried out in April-June 2006. Each 1-ha plot was divided into one hundred 10 m ×10 m quadrats and was surveyed for all trees ≥ 30 cm girth at breast height (gbh) to determine tree species composition and forest structure" (p. 357)
