Blog Post 7: Theoretical Perspectives
In my research project, I aim to explore the factors influencing the distribution of yellow and gray lichen on tree bark along the Churchill Drive Park Trail in Winnipeg, Manitoba….
Post 7: Theoretical Perspectives
The theoretical basis of my research project is based on understanding the influences of elevation on plant biodiversity, specifically focusing on species richness and species density along an elevational gradient….
Blog Post 7: Theoretical Perspectives
Most suburban (and some urban) areas in North America have lawns. Discussions regarding maintenance practices have come to focus, with differing perspectives on the short- and long-term impacts of various…
Post 7: Theoretical Perspectives
The theoretical basis of my research project centers on understanding how different vegetation types influence bird species density. My hypothesis predicts that bird density will vary based on vegetation type,…
Theoretical Perspectives and Moss (Edge environment)
The hypothesis for my field research project is rooted heavily in ecological processes such as environmental stressors, specifically contamination, and the effect of edges as they relate to vehicle pollution…
Blog post 7: Theoretical Perspectives
For my study, some ecological processes that do touch on my hypothesis include Resource Availability and Competition, and adaptation. Urban environments often introduce human food which can alter squirrels natural…
Post 7: Theoretical Perspectives
For my research project, I’m exploring how flower colour influences bee behaviour, specifically looking at how the number of bee visits changes based on the colour of the flower. This…
Blog post 7: Theoretical Perspectives
Blog post 7: Theoretical Perspectives My research explores the relationship between the abundance of Athyrium filix-femina (lady fern) and soil moisture at Pierard Creek in North Vancouver. In my study,…
Theoretical Perspectives
I am studying how the densities of sandbar willow vary at different distances from the waterbody. Abundance of species in any specific area can depend on various factors, such as…
Theoretical Perspectives – Jessica Livingston
I am studying the ecological basis of density vegetation diversity and density that grows near different-sized Bur Oak Trees. When studying the diversity and density of species offers insight into…
