title: Distance from adult tree to the closest sapling along a transect

description: On Monday September 21st 2015 at approximately 4:00pm in the Saywell Wood lot south east of Stong pond at York University took place an experiment comparing adult trees (all of the same species) along the line of a transect to their nearest sapling. Our team placed the transect starting at the edge of the path and going towards the inside of the wooded area. One tree species was picked that was abundant along the transect tape and chose it as the species for the experiment (it was a pine tree). The experiment was to walk along the transect tape and when we neared our designated adult tree type we measured its DBH, the canopy percentage of the adult tree, the distance to the nearest sapling and the saplings DBH. Collecting this data permits the analysis of how well trees are able to grow and how the distance of its corresponding sapling affects its growth along the transect line that goes from the edge of the woodlot to the dense middle of the woodlot.

title: Lizards along an agricultural land abandonment gradient in Pindos Mountains, Greece

description: Agricultural land abandonment is recognized as one of the main environmental drivers in Southern Europe, affecting ecological communities. Lizards, as ectothermic species with low dispersal capacity, are particularly prone to the threats associated with land use changes. We investigated the effect of land abandonment on lizards in a remote mountainous area in Greece, using line transect sampling, in 20 randomly selected sites [1 km × 1 km], along a four grade abandonment gradient in terms of forest encroachment. We recorded four species: <em>Algyroides nigropunctatus</em>, <em>Lacerta viridis/ trilineata</em>, <em>Podarcis tauricus </em>and <em>Podarcis muralis</em>, the latter being the most abundant. Our results did not provide evidence for a significant effect of forest encroachment or grazing on lizard diversity, given the dominance of <em>P. muralis</em>, the availability of all microhabitat types along the gradient and the low grazing intensity in the study area. Environmental parameters at the macrohabitat scale did not prove determinant for habitat variance, but microhabitat analysis showed a clear preference of <em>P. muralis </em>to bare ground. Despite the non-significant effects of land abandonment on lizard diversity, the dominance of <em>P. muralis </em>tends to indicate a lizard community shift towards species inhabiting forested habitats. The preservation of open microhabitats, such as bare land, is considered of great importance for promoting high levels of lizard diversity, as their loss would affect even species currently widespread in forested ecosystems. Low intensity grazing, as well as the enhancement of wild ungulate populations in abandoned areas, can contribute to halting forest encroachment and maintaining the required habitat heterogeneity.

title: Haptic and Tactile Adjectives Are Consistently Mapped onto Color Space

description: Cross-modal associations refer to non-arbitrary associations of features across sensory modalities. Such associations have been observed between many different sensory features. One association that has rarely been studied so far is between touch and color. In this study, participants were asked to match tactile and haptic adjectives to color samples shown individually on a screen. They could select one to 11 tactile and haptic terms, presented in 11 pairs of opposed adjectives. The results showed a regular pattern in the way tactile and haptic terms were matched to color. Our results further revealed that the colors to which tactile and haptic terms were matched did not fall within the boundaries of color lexical categories, suggesting that the associations were not based on lexicon — despite the frequent occurrence of linguistic expressions such as ‘soft pink’, not all colors called ‘pink’ were matched to ‘soft’. In contrast with one recent study, the distribution of tactile and haptic terms across the Munsell array suggests that along with brightness and chroma, hue was also relevant to participants’ responses. Specifically in the case of hue, several opposed adjectives were relatively well matched to opposed colors, along the orthogonal Yellow/Blue and Red/Green axes, which are suggested to structure the space of hue experience. Possible accounts of these results are considered.

title: Woodlot, Dataset #3 - Comparing Distance and Diameter of Trees Using Transect Techniques

description: The data was collected at the woodlot of York University Campus on Wednesday, September 23, 2015 at 4:10 pm to 4:50 pm contributed by J. Quach, L. Tran, Amin A., S. Alvi and I. Darman. At arrival on the woodlot, our group started walking from the edge of the woodlot until reaching the centre of the woodlot in a straight line, extending the transect tape along the way. Every instance an adult tree is encountered, the diameter at breast height (DBH) was measured in metres using transect measuring tape from chest level and after the nearest tree is encountered, the distance between each pair of trees is measured in metres using transect measuring tape. Furthermore, the adult trees of each pair were observed through one’s field of vision and labeled from a scale of 0 to 2, where 0 meaning the tree is dead, 1 meaning the tree is living and 2 meaning the tree has a huge green canopy. These steps are then replicated for a total of 10 times for each pair of trees. The purpose of this experiment indicates that the data shown marks the distinction of proximity between each pair of trees varying on growth conditions and sizes, where it can be a useful indicator whether an ecosystem is endangered or not, as well to be useful to other fields of research.

title: The Density of Adult Trees in the York University Saywell Woodlot

description: This study took place at the Saywell Woodlot at York University. It was conducted on September 21st,2015 on a sunny day between the hours of 4pm and 5pm, at roughly 20 degrees celsius. The data was collected by laying a transect at the edge of the woodlot in a straigh line into the woods. The conductors of the study then walked down the transect and marked the nearest adult tree as a replicate. (Adult trees were determined to be at least twice the conductor's height of 6 feet, 0 inches.) Once a tree was located, its Diameter at Breast Height (DBH) and Condition were evaluated. Then the next nearest adult tree was located, their distance was measured along with the nearest tree's DBH and Condition. This experiment was repeated 9 additional times on the next nearest trees continuing along the transect.

title: Effects of 25 mg oxazepam on emotional mimicry and empathy for pain: a randomized controlled experiment

description: <strong>Abstract</strong><br>Emotional mimicry and empathy are mechanisms underlying social interaction. Benzodiazepines have been proposed to inhibit empathy and promote antisocial behaviour. We aimed to investigate effects of oxazepam on emotional mimicry and empathy for pain, and secondarily to investigate the association of personality traits to emotional mimicry and empathy. Participants (n = 76) were randomised to 25 mg oxazepam or placebo. Emotional mimicry was examined using video clips with emotional expressions. Empathy was investigated by pain stimulating the participant and a confederate. We recorded self-rated experience, activity in major zygomatic and superciliary corrugator muscles, skin conductance, and heart rate. In the mimicry experiment, oxazepam inhibited corrugator activity. In the empathy experiment, oxazepam caused increased self-rated unpleasantness and skin conductance. However, oxazepam did not specifically inhibit emotional mimicry nor empathy for pain. Responses in both experiments were associated to self-rated empathic, psychopathic, and alexithymic traits. The present results do not support a specific effect of oxazepam on emotional mimicry or empathy.

description: A study about the Canadian goldenrod plant was conducted on September 21st, 2015 at Stong pond grassland in York University around 3:30 pm. Temperature on that day was around 22 degrees with sunny skies and low humidity. Field of study was 18 m long measured using a transect tape. The plants were selected randomly where 3 branches on each plant were chosen to represent the replicates. The height of each plant was measured using another transect tape from the bottom of the plant to the highest point. Leaves and flowers on each branch were counted manually by one of the group members while the other recorded the data.

description: The data for the laboratory 3,dataset 3 was collected on September 21,2015 from 2:30 pm to 5:30 pm at the Danby woodlot on the York University Keele Campus. The temperature remained constant at 20 degree celsius with minimal cloud cover and wind. In order to carry out the experiment, 10 pairs of adult trees were observed and a transect measuring tape was used to obtain the required measurements. The measurements included the diameter at breast height of the trees, the distance between the two trees and the condition of the trees. . All the trees used for this experiment were fully grown trees (at least double the height of the average person) and were randomly chosen for experiment. Finally, depending on factors such as abundance of leafs and amount of breakage of the braches, a number ranging from 0-2 was assigned to each tree, which depicted its condition (0=dead, 1=living, 2= huge canopy).The tape ran from the edge of the woodlot to the centre, and every time there was an adult tree present, the specified measurements were taken for that tree and for the tree next to it.
