In this article, we derive prediction intervals for the characteristics of a future sample from normal population when the sample is selected via moving extreme ranked set sampling. We conduct a simulation study to compare these intervals with their counterparts using simple random sampling. Finally, we apply our findings on grassland biodiversity real data set in central Europe.References
