GLAS then, is used as a sampling tool within a hybrid estimation framework to generate stratum-, stand-, anational-levelvel AGB estimates.
The following section uses a series of case studies to highlight the problems with and potential benefits of such integration, and to emphasise some of the challenges when looking for and dealing with tephra deposits embedded in humanly modified or generated strata.
Using a stratified inventory approach provides an easily understandable way to generate strata-level tree lists simply from plot data and because of this is more easily verified [8].

For example, steps direct the user to evaluate whether procedure dates span the entire specified date range, whether the number of procedures is similar across the time window, whether any procedure codes fail to identify any procedures, and whether any other variables or strata generate a zero count.
The resulting expected numbers of deaths were summed across strata to generate the expected number of deaths for each cause of death category and overall.
Compared to strata before mining, roof strata collapse or generate fractures due to mining activities, which leads to seismic waves are absorbed when propagating in the strata and seismic wave frequency also decreases.
Therefore, the intra-cluster correlation is taken into account when the ABB procedure is applied within each stratum to generate the imputed values for the missing data.
Figure 2 shows a map of the strata generated by this new approach with the old stand boundaries shown in black.
All associations generated across the strata are available in Supplemental Material, Files S3 and S4 ("Spreadsheet").
If a hospital's ICU personnel could not be identified or declined survey participation, the next hospital in the randomly generated sample by strata was surveyed.
