Tables and Graph
After completing my data analysis, I created a table and graph. I categorized. behavioural observations of Black-capped Chickadee across three different time intervals, focusing on foraging, caching, and vocalization. There…
Theory perspective
Through my theory I am trying to explore ecological processes underlying how environmental factors such as habitat composition ad anthropogenic disturbances, shape behaviour of the species. When we see, chickadees…
Data collection
My data collection is now complete, and overall, the process was very nice. I focused on observing Black-capped Chickadee and their behavioural patterns at Assiniboine Park, Winnipeg. I did this…
Design reflection
The strategy i chose was random sampling. The data collection did cause some difficulties which were: Black-capped Chickadee are highly mobile and forage actively which made tracking the group challenging…
Sampling strategies
Sampling strategies used: for this study I focused on area-based methods with three distinct sampling strategies. haphazard = samples were placed arbitrarily in locations selected without any systematic approach. random…
Ongoing field observations
Organism of my study: The focus of my field search is Black-capped Chickadee, a small bird commonly found in forested regions and urban parks. Observations along the environment: during my…
Sources of Scientific information
source: effects of habitat fragmentation on movement patterns and population dynamics of amphibians. type of information: this is an academic peer-reviewed article. And I chose this article because: it is…
Post 4: Sampling Strategies
Systematic: sampling along a topographic gradient was the fastest with a total time 12 hours and 5 minutes. Most common species were eastern hemlock and sweet birtch. Two rarest species…
Ongoing Field Observations
Date: January 19, 2024 Weather: Sunny with clouds. Minimal precipitation over the last seven days with temperature during the site visit recorded at 4 celcius. The organism I have chosen…
Blog Post 9 – Reflection on Arctic Research
My project was on the affects of slope aspect (North or South facing) and the affect on vegetation health. I used slopes on landfills in the arctic and visually classified…
