title: A computer program using a nested analysis of variance in morphometric sampling.
abstract: The quality of the sample set is absolutely essential in a morphometric analysis. In this paper a computer program is described which uses a nested analysis of variance in defining the sample. The program denotes those levels of the sampling protocol at which additional sampling should be performed to reduce the variance within the sample set. Furthermore, the program is written for use on a microcomputer which allows it to be used routinely in monitoring a sample set.
