Fig. 1

Modelled relationship (black line, accounting for spatial auto-correlation) between line intersect sampling precision (expressed as coefficient of variation, CV) and transect length, showing that precision increases (lower CV) with increasing transect length. Ignoring spatial autocorrelation of DWD values (grey dots) falsely suggests greater precision can be obtained for a given transect length
