Spatial Designs for Ecological and Environmental Surveys

Provides spatially survey balanced designs. Information about the package itself is given in Foster (2021) . Designs using MBHdesign can: 1) accommodate, without substantial detrimental effects on spatial balance, legacy sites (Foster et al., 2017 ); 2) be based on points or transects (foster et al. 2020 and produce clustered samples (Foster et al. (in press). The base idea that these designs stem from is the quasi-random number method described Robinson et al. (2013) and adjusted in Robinson et al. (2017) .
