Table 2.

Sample strata within each of the two geographic strata. Strata 1 through 16 are class-specific “no change” strata based on the Level II classes and strata 17 through 37 are change strata based on the Level I classes. The “catchall” stratum includes all other three-date Level I land cover class combinations. Numbers in parentheses are total sample size across both geographic strata.
