Adaptive Stratified Sampling/Evidence
Method evidence record

Adaptive Stratified Sampling

Adaptive stratified sampling divides the population into strata and then applies an adaptive rule within each stratum: whenever an initially selected unit satisfies a pre-specified condition (e.g., a rare species is found, a variable exceeds a threshold), neighboring or related units are added to the sample. This combines the variance-reduction power of stratification with the ability to concentrate sampling effort where the phenomenon of interest is actually present.
