Wildlife Study Design
Morrison, M.L., Block, W.M., Strickland, M.D., Collier, B.A., Peterson, M.J.
2nd ed., 2008, XXXIV, 386 p. 55 illus., Hardcover
After the success of the first edition, Wildlife Study Design returns with a second edition
showcasing a substantial body of new material applicable to the study design of ecology, conservation and
management of wildlife. Building on reviews of the first edition and feedback from workshops and graduate
teaching, this new edition, authored by Michael Morrison, William Block, M. Dale Strickland, Bret Collier,
and Markus Peterson, proves to be a valuable guide and reference for scientists and resource managers, as
well as being a useful textbook for advanced undergraduate and graduate students.
Taking an approach from both a basic and applied perspective, the book covers numerous aspects of
study design including variable classification, the necessity of randomization and replication in wildlife
study design, the three major types of designs in decreasing order of rigor, detection probabilities,
adaptive cluster methods, double sampling, sampling of rare species, effect size and power, and impact
assessment, just to name a few. The concepts provided by the book make study design both accessible and
comprehensive to a wide array of readers.
