population units are the entities that make up a target population. The units can be defined in many ways, depending on the survey objectives and the type of measurement to be made. Typically, definitions of environmental units include (1) an explicit statement of the characteristics each population unit must possess in order to be considered a member of the target population and a (2) specification of location in space and time.
