Graph of Field Data
I had no issues summarizing the field data and graphing it. The majority of quadrats (70%) in the “moist” zone contained the study organism, compared to only 20% of the…
Theoretical ideas behind field project
My study organism occurs in a zone between a marsh area and a grassland area. Changing soil conditions across the environmental gradient likely influence its growth pattern. Other ecological processes…
Data Collection Experience
Field data collection was completed in an afternoon. I changed the study design to a presence/absence survey rather than measuring plant heights. Using the frame of a torn window screen…
Blog Post 9: Field Research Reflections
Looking back on this project I wish I had completed it over a longer period. I feel the data I obtained is not a great representation of what is occurring….
Sources of Scientific Information -marine species distribution-
The source of scientific ecological information I have chosen is an article titled “Interactive effects of predation and climate on the distributions of marine shellfish in the Northwest Atlantic” published…
Field Research Reflections
I thoroughly enjoyed conducting my study. I had a great time completing the speciation and data collection. Even though it was a little busy—well, busier than I had anticipated, to…
Table and Graphs
In the table I have gathered information on the abundance of different moth species in four distinct zones, designated T1 through T4, and presented it in the table. Every zone…
Theoretical Perspectives
Our study explores the field of moth ecology to gain an understanding of moth population patterns and the effects that their environment has on them. We are going to investigate…
Data collection
For my review subject, which studied the range of moths found in the reformation area, it was vital to collect information. I’ll give restraints on my way of dealing with information collection…
Design Reflections
The main goal of my ecological study is to see and study the various moth species in the park. Because of their extensive distribution, moths make excellent subjects for in-depth research…
