In 2010-11 a whole island survey or Macquarie Island was undertaken by Justine Shaw and Aleks Terauds. Quadrats (1m * 1m and 10m *10m) formed the basis of these surveys. At a minimum, quadrats were surveyed at the centroid of each 1 km * 1 km grid square. Other quadrats were surveyed along the survey track depending on the presence of non-native plants. Native plant coverage was also recorded in most quadrats.
