Abstract

We discuss sampling strategies for natural resource inventory surveys through the Fishery Products International (FPI) survey of fish abundance indices. The primary objective of the chapter is to formulate the problem under the general framework established in Parts I and II on survey design and estimation, and to provide useful tools for conducting surveys under similar circumstances.
