A two year insect population dynamics data shows slight variation in their performances w.r.t meteorological parameters. Data pooling will be helpful for me?
Depends....common polling techniques occur over time and place, and they are useful for increasing the number of observation when the N is low.

Data pooling is when data from multiple sources are pooled, so you would not actually be pooling. You can combine the data for two years for better power, but use them separately if you want to examine inter-annual differences
Kalpana - Pooling data provides an opportunity to analyze a much larger data set. A proper data pool makes it possible to access diverse data and perform analysis on data that is updated regularly. It makes data encrypted and secure. Other benefits of pooling individual subject data include enhanced statistical power, the ability to compare outcomes and validate models across sites or settings, and opportunities to develop new measures. However, pooling of data require large amount of time required for further analysis.
