STATISTICS

[Allison Rapo]

I'm doing a dissertation. I surveyed all plant species on 16 hedges.
The hedges were:
flailed once a year on a road next to an arable field x2
flailed every 3 years inside a field (boundary) in an arable field x 2
neglected hedge on a road next to an arable field x 2
neglected hedge inside a field (boundary) in an arable field x 2
flailed once a year on a road next to a grazed field x 2
flailed every 3 years inside a field (boundary) next to a grazed field x 2
neglected hedge on a road next to a grazed field x 2
neglected hedge inside a field (boundary) next to a grazed field x 2
presence and % cover was recorded for each plant for the hedge side and the field layer.

what stats will tell me which hedges yeild the most diversity??

Does anyone have any ideas?

I'm not very sure what you're asking here. Stats never cut its point across with me .. so please give some more details on the data available and the reports/formula output expected
