POST 1 : OBSERVATIONS
The selected location for the study area is around the slopes of Prince Rupert, British Columbia V8J 1A8 (coordinates 54°18’51″N 130°19’17” W). This area is on a mountain slope in the North Coast Regional District. The typical vegetation in this area includes dense grass and short trees, sweet chestnuts, and lodgepole pine. During the day of the visit, the area was cold; the temperature was about 10 degrees, and the weather was humid.
For the case of this area, I would like to investigate the
- the soil in this region
- the vegetation
- the climate and understand how the three relate.
The following are the questions for research based on this area
- How does the geographic location of Prince Rupert, British Columbia (V8J 1A8), impact its biodiversity and marine ecosystems?
- Which is the dominant vegetation in Prince Rupert, British Columbia V8J 1A8?
- What is the impact of climate change on Prince Rupert, British Columbia V8J 1A8, about vegetation?
