Introduction: Instrumentation
is used in almost every activity and generating system, where consistent and
reliable operations are required. Instrumentation provides the means of
monitoring, recording and controlling a process to maintain it at a desired
state. A typical environmental activity yields many process variables that have
to be measured and manipulated. Variables such as boiler level, temperature and
pressure, turbine speed, generator output and many others have to be controlled
prudently to ensure a safe and efficient station operation. Instrumentation is
often referred to as the power behind scientific investigations.
This assignment also explains the
general aspect of Quadrat Survey; its purpose and approach for ecological
study.
