The size of survey area is very important to p roper exp ress the characteristics of the forest communities.This paper studied on the research p lot dataset which composed by tree spatial positions data and tree speciescomposition from China, Mongolia, Myanmar, South Africa and Germany, a new app roach on determining the forestcommunities’minimum survey area p resented bymodel and mathematicsmethod. By setting quadrate samp le in thecenter of p lot and then enlarging its edge length interval 10 m to get the data of species-area curve and establish thespecies-area model, the minimum survey area can be determined bymaking the value of second derivative model iszero or app roximate zero ( 1 ×10-6 ). The study also found that the relationship of minimum area with maximumspecies can be well described by semi-logarithm and the model can be directly estimated the survey minimum areaby using potential tree species quantity in p ractice.
