stratified random sampling
A form of probabilistic sampling in which the region or site is divided inot natural zones or strata such as cultivated land and forest; units are then chosen by a random number procedure so as to give each zone a number of squares proportional to its area, thus overcoming the inherent bias in simple random sampling.
