OpenStudy (koikkara):

Hmm... Four methods of determining population size are; Direct observation, indirect observation, sampling, mark-and-recapture studies Sampling - counting the number of organisms in a small area and multiplying to estimate the number in a larger area Mark & Recapture - capture an organism & release it to remix with population. Then recapture some more in that area to determine population size.
