25 lis 2024 · Transects are lines laid out across a site that can be used to measure abundance and distribution across a habitat. Transects are useful for determining how species abundance and distribution might change along a gradient e.g. at increasing distances from a field margin or perpendicular to the water's edge on a rocky shore
Transect - A transect is a straight line across a habitat that is used to make measurements and observations. Distribution - The distribution of a species is the geographical area in which a species can be found. Abundance - Abundance is the number of organisms of a species found within a habitat.
