title: Distance and living conditions between pairs of silver maple trees

description: For this experiment, the target trees were located in the woodlot at York University. The experiment aimed to measure the distances (in cm) between a pair of two adult trees. An adult tree in this case was classified as a tree twice the height of the experiment conductor (or higher). Transect measuring tape was used to measure the distance between the first observed tree to the next closest tree. The diameter at breast height (dbh) was also measured with the transect tape (in cm) of the pair of trees. The living condition of the trees were observed visually and recorded with a scale from 0 – 2 to describe whether the tree was dead, living, or fully flourished with canopy and leaves. The total sample size was 20 individual adult trees.

title: grassland lab

description: This dataset was collected based on transect technique to observe the abundance of Aster prenathoides(Late purple aster) in grasslands near York University, in Toronto. Sample number of 20 Purple Asters was collected using straight line 20 metre transect measuring tape, counting and observing the plants from 0 to 20 metres, as well as their Distance on transect in metres, height of the plant in centimetres, number of leaves on the plant, number of flowers, and level of crowdness in the scale of 0 being open, to 3 which states very crowded bunch of plants within 50 centimetres.

title: Dataset #1: Grassland

description: The purpose of this experiment was to compare the abundance of grass and other plant species, as well as observe the diversity of plants in the grassland. The abundance of grass and other plant species was determined by quadrant sampling. This technique involves randomly placing a metal, square quadrant on the grassland and examining its contents for its abundance, number of species, total cover of vegetation, and total cover of grass. The random placement method was adopted to avoid any bias in the results. This experiment was conducted on September 26th, 2014 from 3:00-3:35pm on the grassland by The Chimneystack Road. The grass and plants examined in the field had started to wilt and dry due to weather and season conditions. Observations and the recording of the data was completed by Lilach Dahoah-Halevi (myself), Cait Carew, and Nitharsija Srikanthan.

title: Ecology lab 2: Grassland dataset 2

description: The Daucus carota was observed in Danby grasslands. We placed a transect tape (length: 20 meters) in the grassland, in a straight line. Beginning at 0 meters on the transect tape, onwards, we observed each Daucus carota encountered and recorded the distance along the transect line in centimeters. 20 individuals were sampled; each individual Daucus carota within 30 centimeters of the transect line on either side was considered. Each individual was held upright if it was not already so and its height (measured with a transect tape) was recorded in centimeters. Also recorded were the number of flowers on each individual, the number of leaves, and the level of crowding based on the following scale: 0 = open, 1 = some plants nearby, 2 = quite a few plants, 3 = very crowded bunch of plants within 50 centimeters.

title: Lab 2. Quadrat sampling in a grassland

description: The dataset was collected at 3pm in a field to the south of the Danby woodlot on the York University campus. A square quadrat was placed randomly on the ground. Only plants with stems found inside the border were counted as being contained within the quadrat. The total number of unique species in the quadrat was counted and recorded. Each of these species was identified to genus or species (sp.), or if unknown was given a descriptive general grouping. The number of individuals for each species was counted. If there were more than 20 individuals, the quadrat was divided into quarters and the individuals within only one quarter were counted and this number multiplied by four to achieve the abundance. The percentage of the quadrat covered by each species was estimated. Grasses (<em>Poa</em> spp.) were not included in any counts, resulting in total % cover not summing to 100.

title: Technique and data collection: Grassland Quadrant Sampling

description: In York University Woodlot, a standard size qandrant was placed randomly 20 times, and during each time, the following observations were made on plant species in the quadrant. First the total number of species present were identified and recorded with the help of classification key. this was followed by a measure of abundane, which was the total number of each individual that was observed for each plant species. Species Richness was also obtained, which was the total number of different plant species observed in each quadrant. finally, the percent cover of each species was obtained, by simply estimating the total vegetation cover on the ground by that specie.

title: DBH, Canopy Coverage, and Distance from Tree to Sapling of Silver Maple Trees at York University

description: Data from 20 random Acer saccharinum (Silver Maple) trees were collected from York University's woodlot, Danby Woods. Four traits were measured: diameter at breast height (dbh) of tree, canopy coverage, distance to sapling, and dbh of sapling. Dbh was measured in cm and rounded to the nearest whole cm using a 20m transect tape measure. Canopy coverage was calculated as the percentage of sky present subtracted from 100% determined by the researcher by making a square with index fingers and thumbs; holding it up above researcher's head toward canopy and looking through the square. Distance to sapling was measured from the outermost point of the tree closest to the sapling to the outermost point of the sapling closest to the tree using a 20 m transect tape measure held along the ground. Saplings were defined in this experiment as any Silver Maple tree shorter than or equal to twice the height of the researcher.

title: Lab 2, week 3

description: On Tuesday September 23rd, at 4:20pm in the forest at York University, a tree that was at least 3.4 metres tall (or about two times the measure's height) was found on the edge of the forest. The measurer then walked straight towards the centre of the forest. When they encountered a tree that was at least 3.4 metres tall again, the distance from the last tree was recorded in metres at the same measurer's breast height (about 1.2 meters) using a transect measuring tape . This was counted as a pair in the data set. Ten pairs of trees were used. The two trees' diameters at breast height were recorded in metres by having one student consistently taking the diameter of the tree using a transect measuring tape at their breast height (about 1.2 metres). Both trees in the pair were observed for their physical condition, by looking at their canopy coverage.
