title: Daucus carota-Effect of crowding on Plant Height, Number of leaves and Number of Flowers

description: This experiment was performed on the 21st of September 2015, between 2.45 pm and 4.30 pm at the Stong Pond (43°46'14.2"N,79°30'22.7"W) at York University, ON. The weather was sunny, with an average temperature of 23°C and the plant chosen to be counted was <em>Daucus carota</em>. When a plant of that species was found along the edge of the grassland, a transect was run out from that plant towards the center of the grassland. The distance along the transect where the plant was found and the height of the plant were measured, in metres, and the number of leaves and number of flowers counted, with a crowding number assigned. Each time a <em>Daucus carota</em> was found along the transect, the above values were measured again. This was done for 50 plants (replicates). Experimenters were Mohammad Imrit, Gurjot Mukher, Fadumo Hersi and Ron Kleiman. The same experimenter was chosen to count the measurables, to ensure constant accuracy. There was no significant relationship between crowding, number of leaves, number of flowers and height of the plant.

title: Distribution of Various Plants in the York University Danby Woods

description: On September 21st, 2015 at approximatly 15:00, the students from Chris Lortie's BIOL 2050 clss in Bailey Hewitt's 01 tutorial section, performed an experiment where they were to use quadrats and transects to collect field data in Danby Woods, located in York University. That day, the weather was 21 degrees and was semi-chilly, due to the wind. This experiment was performed in groups of four. My group included myself, Amena, Frankie, and Taylor. I conducted Grassland Data Set 1 using a quadrat. Quadrats are a square frame used to record the abundance inside the area of said square. My partner, Amena, and I used the random number website to collect 25 numbers, which we then used as step counts. Every time a number was generated we would walk that many steps until that number was recahed. We would then use the quadrat, placing it on the ground in front of us and count the number of plants we saw and also examine the diversity of the area inside the square. It is intersting to note that there was more variety, life and a higher count of plants in the middle of the grasslands, as opposed to the ones on the outer portions. We noted spotting the common plantain, common marlow, the common thistle and the common milkweed.

title: Cartoonists of Color Datasets

description: The Cartoonists of Color Dataset and the LGBTQ Cartoonists of Color Dataset are derived from the Cartoonists of Color Database (CoC). Dataset release is the result of a collaboration with CoC Database creator, artist, author, and illustrator MariNaomi. These datasets are provided in order to support folks interested in exploring the data computationally. :: Backstory :: MariNaomi developed the CoC database, “For visibility. For Academia. For inspiration. For community building.” CoC contains contains biographical information (ethnicity, gender, creative roles, location, comic titles, genre, etc.) for 861 cartoonists who identify as non-Caucasian (non-white). The CoC database is a unique resource that holds potential to support a growing conversation on diversity (race, gender, sex) in comics that spans academic, popular, creator, and fan discourse. CoC data was gathered by hand and via completion of an online form. The database continues to grow. :: Data Preparation :: Data derived from the database have been minimally normalized. In some cases, data have not been normalized at all. I leave this to the discretion of the data user, but I would say to tread ethically. While the ethnicity data field contains more than 160 different types, (e.g. "mixed, black", "African American", "African-American + Afro-Bermudian / Irish-American") some of which you could interpret as acceptable candidates for normalization, keep in mind what the act of normalization does. Especially in light of the connection between data point and identity. Take the diversity of the data as a challenge. Strain those data models. Where they don't work, cast them aside. Perhaps make something new. :: Data Summary :: Cartoonists of Color Dataset - contains biographical information for all cartoonists of color 20150912_coc.csv<br>20150912_coc.json LGBTQ Cartoonists of Color Dataset - contains biographical information for the LGBTQ subset of the Cartoonists of Color Dataset 20150912_coc_lgbtq.csv<br>20150912_coc_lgbtq.json :: Acknowledgements :: Source data compiled and maintained by MariNaomi.

title: Dataset 1: Plant Diversity and Dispersal at Danby Woods Grassland in York University.

description: The data was collected on Monday September 21st, 2015 at 3:00pm at the grassland of Dansby Woods in York University, the temperature was sunny and 21°C. The area where the field sampling took place had an abundance of plant species such as White Oak, Red Oak, Common Plantain, Common Milkweed, Common Dandelion, Service Oak, and Wild Mustard. The sampling was done in groups of four which included Shahana, Paula, Aziza, and Sahar. Four datasets were collected two from grassland and two from woodlot. This dataset one sampling was conducted with the help of Sahar. To record the data a 1m x 1m square quadrat made out of metal was placed randomly on the grassland. For the first quadrat about 5 steps was taken and then a quadrat was placed randomly on the grassland. This was repeated until 25 plots were sampled. The abundance of plants was estimated by doing a very quick count of every individual in the quadrat. The total number of different species was identified by using a plant identification key that was based on features such as colour, shape, and size. The total cover of all vegetation and the total cover of grass was done by observing what was present in the quadrat, and estimating a percentage based on how much of it was occupied.

title: Data Set 1 - Week 3

description: Step 1: The grassland for the experiment, on the southwest side of campus, was chosen for us. Step 2: The starting point of observation was chosen by randomly throwing the quadrat into the meadow. Step 3: The total number of different species the quadrat was counted. Step 4: The total cover of vegetation was estimated as a percentage, as the area of the quadrat that was covered by grass and plants. Step 5: The total cover of grass was also estimated as a percentage of area in the quadrat that was covered by grasses. Step 6: The total abundance of plants was estimated as the number of grasses and plants in the quadrat. Step 7: All the numbers were recorded in a chart. Step 8: The next quadrat of area was chosen by flipping the quadrat to the side. Step 9: Steps 3 to 8 were repeated 24 more times.

title: Condition of trees in Danby Woodlot at York University using a transect

description: The purpose of this experiment was to determine conditions of trees near the edge of Danby Woods vs. trees in the centre of Danby Woods while learning techniques of collecting field data using a transect. Data was collected at Danby Woods at the York University Keele campus on Monday, September 21, 2015 from 3:30-4:30pm by two researchers named Sahar & Aziza. Sahar would take all the measurements and Aziza would note the measurements. At a temperature of 18°C, the weather was sunny and partially cloudy. At Danby Woods, given the time of year, there were many trees to study as the leaves had not fallen for Autumn, however the woodlot was not in great condition as there were many signs of human littering. First the researchers observed the woodlot for placing the transect tape in a location that would represent the whole woodlot. A 30m transect tape was placed in a straight line from the edge of the woodlot to the centre of the woodlot. Beginning from the edge of woodlot on the right side of the transect tape, the researchers chose 20 trees for 10 pairs that were above 12 feet. Each individual tree’s height was not measured, the trees that were double Sahar’s height would be approximately 12 feet tall. Then using a different transect tape, Sahar measured the distance in between each pair of trees, distance breast height (DBH) of each individual tree. Also, the condition of each individual tree was observed by the naked eye. After the data was collected, the transect tape was retrieved by the researchers. The data indicates that the trees near the edge of the Danby Woods are farther apart and are healthier with either living or large canopy. However toward the center of Danby Woods, the trees become closer together with some dead trees.

title: WK3 Lab 2 - Milkweeds in Danby Woods - Dataset 2

description: This experiment was conducted at the grassland of Danby Woods in York University with the assistance of Alexandra from BIOL 2050 Ecology Lab 02 on Sep 22, 2015 between 3:45pm and 4:30pm with the temperature around 21°C. A transect tape was randomly placed on the grassland where Asclepias syriaca, commonly known as milkweeds, were observed. The distance (in ft) on the transect from the starting point to the corresponding milkweeds was recorded. Then the height of each milkweed was measured in feet using transect as a ruler. Number of leaves on the milkweeds were counted. Crowdedness of the patch around the milkweeds was recorded in the level from 0 to 3 in which 3 means most crowded. The process was repeated for 50 milkweed along the transect.

title: Woodlot Dataset

description: We as a group of four students collected a data on the grasslands and woodlot plants of the York University campus. For the woodlot experiment in a row of 10 trees, as a group of two : 1. The Diameter of Breast Height of each tree in a row of 10, were measured using a Transect tool placed horizontally at the base of the tree. Measrements were recorded in centimetres. 2.Second, the distance of the trees from its nearest sapling (same species) were measured by one person holding the one end of the Transect tape at the Tree and the other person holding the other end at its sapling. This was continued in a row from the sapling to the next tree and so on. Measurements were recorded in metres. 3.Lastly, the extent of the canopy coverage of each tree was estimated by making a square with fingers and holding it up and the visible sky was observed and an estimate was recorded. Data was recorded in percentage.

title: Woodlot Data Set 4 Lab02

description: BIOL2050 Lab 02. This experiment was conducted in the Danby Woodlot at York University on 22nd September 2015 between 4:00-4:38 pm with team members: Bryson Chandrarajan, Stanley Igiebor and Sharan Saravanabavan. The temperature was 22°C, clear skies with a cool breeze. Due to the canopy coverage there was very little sunlight in the Woodlot. Adult trees were chosen at random in the Danby woodlot and their DBH (Diameter at Breast Height) was measured in inches using the measuring tape, from one end of the trunk to the other, keeping the tape straight. Then saplings of the same species nearest to the adult trees were located. The distance between the sapling and the adult tree was measured using the measuring tape, from the edge of the sapling to the edge of the adult tree. Then the DBH of the saplings were recorded using the measuring tape, from one end of the trunk to the other, keeping the tape straight. The canopy coverage was estimated in percentage by forming a square with fingers and holding it up and estimating how much sky is visible. The canopy coverage percentage sometimes exceeded 100% as a result of overlapping layers of the leaves and branches.

title: Plantago Major distribution in YorkU grasslands

description: This dataset was created by our ecology lab team Amena, Taylor, Keerthana and I. The data was recorded at York University's Keele campus on September 22, 2015 around 3:00PM - 4:00PM. During the lab the weather was sunny with a temperature of about 20 degrees. Our sampling was done via the random sampling method. We used a random number generator (https://www.random.org/) to avoid haphazard/biased sampling. After getting a number of 34 we took 34 steps before placing the transect down. We used the belt transect method, every Plantago Major plant within 1 metre of the transect was recorded. The data recorded was distance along the transect in Feet and inches, height in inches, # of leaves/flowers and the proximity of the plant to others within 50cm (rated from 0-3 explained in metadata). We sampled 50 plants along the transect. The average number of leaves found was 4.8, average height was 1.1 inches and the mode for proximity to another plant was 2.

title: Ecology Lab 2: Oberservation and Data Collection of the Common Plantain

description: This study was done in collaboration with 3 other team members composed of Muhammad Akram, Daniel Germani, and Markian Plawiuk. During data collection for this particular data set, Markian took on the role as lab assistant. This study took place at York University Keele Campus on Tuesday, September 22nd, 2015 at the Danby Grassland. The conditions of the environment where the study took place were 23 degrees Celsius, sunny, with mild breezy conditions. The Danby Grassland consisted of a large abundance of plant species no taller than knee height, with a clumped dispersion pattern, as “patches” of individuals crowding together were common. There were minor amounts of debris present within the area at the time of study. The study began at approximately 3:10PM, and concluded at approximately 4:02PM. The purpose of this study was to collect a dataset comprised of 50 individuals of common plantain (<em>Plantago major</em>) along the length of a randomly placed transect tape within the grassland. This study allowed for team members to familiarize themelves with distance methods used in practical ecology studies to estimate and observe population abundances and distributions. Each individual’s distance along the transect tape, height, number of leaves, number of flowers, and it’s crowdedness amongst other individuals within the immediate surrounding areas of observation were noted. Efficiency and effectiveness was ensured by having one team member moving along the transect line and taking note of the distance, number of leaves, flowers, and crowdedness, while the lab assistant measured the height of each species and reassured that the leaf count was correct. Both group members were responsible for making sure that movement along the transect line was as straight as possible and not skewed, and for spotting the next target individual located along the transect tape. This method of sampling used with the transect was the line method, as individuals located directly under the transect tape were recorded. The origin of the transect tape was held in place to the ground of the random location of origin of study by firmly and securely placing a pencil into the ground holding the end of the tape to ensure the distances measured were as accurate as possible. If the end of the grassland field was approached prior to the completion of data collection, a brand new random origin location was selected within the area of study to avoid biased sampling, and observations were resumed normally with new distances recorded till enough individuals have been observed.
