BAC, consider how data collected in small experimental plots can be valuable in helping scientists understand larger earth systems. In you opinion, how valid is the use of relatively small data samples, like the ones in the study, in making correlations to big issues like climatechange? Give two reasons why you would accept or reject these kinds of studies in helping to understand bigger and more complexproblems.
