Methodology for the establishment and survey of reference sites for BioCondition: version 1.4

BioCondition is an assessment framework that provides a measure of how well a terrestrial ecosystem is functioning for the maintenance of biodiversity values. It is a site-based, quantitative and therefore repeatable assessment procedure that provides a numeric score that can be summarised as a condition rating of 1, 2, 3 or 4, or good through to poor condition.
