Good Morning,
I am looking for some advice or direction pertaining to the spatial statistical analysis of leatherback sea turtle (Dermochelys coriacea) data collected during aerial surveys along the South Carolina coast.
Aerial surveys have been flown since the late 1980s along two transect lines that parallel the coast. I am trying to figure out how to spatially analyze these points to determine their pattern (normal, clumped, or dispersed distribution).
I am currently reading Statistical Analysis with ArcView GIS by Lee and Wong. The methods described in this book for spatial analysis of point data include the quadrat, nearest neighbor, and spatial autocorrelation analyses. I am not sure though how these analyses gel with line transect sampling. I wanted to inquire so as to see if there was any information out there on what I am trying to do?
I will SUM and I appreciate your time!
DuBose Griffin
