Quadrats provide a simple but effective scientific method for the ecological surveying of vegetation or invertebrates in a wide range of habitats. The Q4 Quadrat is a strong collapsible quadrat ideal for travel and it is made from four pieces of heavy gauge steel wire with zinc plating - - it is smooth, UV resistant and cannot be chipped.
The Q4 frame is ideal for general vegetation survey and additional units can be used together to make a variety of quadrats (for example, 1m x 1m or 1m x 0.5m).
