description: On Tuesday, September 27<sup>th</sup>, 2016, at 3:00-4:30pm, an experiment testing the total number of birds, number of species, and frequency of that species between the Danby Woodlot and the Grasslands was carried out. The weather was 17 degrees Celsius; the wind speed was 18 km/h, and mostly cloudy skies. This experiment was conducted at the Danby Woodlot and Grasslands area, located at the York University Keele Campus (43.7 degrees North, 75.9 degrees West), between York Blvd and Keele St. It was predicted that there would be a greater number of birds in the Woodlot than the Grasslands. It was hypothesized that the frequency of seeing different bird species would be greater in the Woodlot because birds have their shelter and food in trees, which is necessary for different bird species to continue thriving. This experiment was carried out by placing a belt transect that was measured to be 25m, and waiting 5 minutes to observe the total number of birds, the total number of species, and the frequency of the species within the transect. This was done for a total of 5 times in the Woodlot area, and a total of 5 times in the Grassland area. 45 minutes were both equally spent in the Grassland and Woodlot area. The hypothesis was proven to be correct; there were more birds in total, more species, and the frequency of birds in a specific species was greater in the Woodlot area than the Grasslands, but the confounding variables that negatively affected the amount of birds that were seen while the experiment was being carried out were the wind and cool weather.

title: Pollen morphology and its taxonomic utility in the Southern Hemisphere bracteate-prostrate forget-me-nots (<i>Myosotis</i>, Boraginaceae)

description: The pollen of the informal bracteate-prostrate group of Southern Hemisphere <i>Myosotis</i> sect. <i>Exarrhena</i> (Boraginaceae: Cynogossoideae: Myosotideae) was investigated using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) to obtain taxonomically useful characters for delimiting species and species groups. Pollen grains of one to four individuals of each of 30 different taxonomic entities were imaged using SEM, scored for 16 different morphological characters, described and analysed. Pollen grains are small, heterocolpate, with 8–12 apertures, oblate spheroidal to prolate in equatorial view, with linear pseudocolpi which alternate with the colpori and can be partially to fully fused (‘anastomosing’) to form an apocopial field (‘polar cap’). Colpori ektoapertures are wider and often shorter than pseudocolpi, rhombic or narrowly rhombic with often circular or elliptical endoapertures. The exine is usually verrucate on the endoaperture membranes but densely and evenly granulate elsewhere. Statistical analyses of the pollen morphological dataset recovered three significant clusters, two of which contained the majority of individuals and coincided with the previously categorised <i>Myosotis australis</i> type pollen, while individuals in the third cluster had <i>M. uniflora</i> type pollen. <i>Myosotis brevis</i> (<i>M. discolor</i> type) and <i>M. glabrescens</i> (<i>M. angustata</i> type) represented two additional pollen types and thus had the most distinctive pollen of the whole dataset, whereas <i>M. albiflora</i> and <i>M. tenericaulis</i> showed high intraspecific variability. Important pollen characters separating the clusters included aperture number, polar cap presence, and <i>P:E</i> ratio (shape). Although most species could not be identified based solely on pollen morphology, species with similar habits clustered together, and pollen characters will be useful for delimiting species groups or species when combined with additional morphological, genetic or other datasets. Additional pollen studies of the remaining <i>Myosotis</i> species is warranted, including those from sect. <i>Exarrhena</i> with <i>M. discolor</i> type pollen and the ebracteate-erect species, as well as Northern Hemisphere sect. <i>Myosotis</i>.

description: <br> Prediction: it is expected there would be a greater amount of insects spotted in the grassland environment. Hypothesis: There would be a greater population of insects observed in the grassland than in the woodlot environment because the greater abundance of flowering plants found in grassland would attract more pollinators in which the food resources obtained from the plants can be metabolize for energy. Therefore fewer amounts of insects would be observed in the woodlot compared to the grassland due to the lack of plant distribution in the woodlot. Meta-data: Quadrat- The quadrat apparatus was used to collect the number of different species and number of individual insects seen in a given area. Number of species- Examine the number of different taxonomic units (rtus) by visual observations within the quadrat area for over 2 minutes for each trial. Continues data. Number of insects- Counted the total number of individual insect seen within the quadrat area for a over 2 minutes for each trial. Continuous data. Methods: The field study was taken place in a grassland and woodlot setting at the location of Boyer Woodlot with a latitude of 43.8ᴼ and longitude of -79.5ᴼ. The time period the experimental data was conducted from 2:45 p.m.- 4:10 p.m. on Sept. 27th 2016. The temperature was 21ᴼC with the weather forecast being partly sunny with few clouds. The humidity of the area that day was 43ᴼ and wind was -23km/h in the southwest direction. At the start of the experiment the length and width of the quadrat apparatus was measured with a measuring tape. The dimension of the quadrat was 1 metre by 1 metre and the total area of the quadrat was calculated to be 1m<sup>2</sup>. The quadrat was initially placed at the edge of the grassland northwest of the Lumbers building. The different species were observed by visually counting the total number of distinguishable species within the quadrat for a time of 2 minutes per sample. Simultaneously the total number of insects within the quadrat area was individually counted in that given time. 10 trials were performed in the grassland area and another 10 trials were replicated in the woodlot area, adding up to 20 trials (n=20). Random sampling was done by taking 5 medium steps (1.5 metres) and placing the quadrat on the ground every time the insects were sampled to ensure the distance between the field samples observed were equivalent. By using this method, accurate results were obtained.

description: Hypothesis: The abundance of birds within the woodlot would be greater than the amount found in the grassland and the amount of species and frequency of species will vary in the different environments. Prediction: The number of birds found within the woodlot will be greater than that found in the grasslands since many birds live within the trees. The environment may also affect where certain bird species live and the frequency of the species considering that certain species may live in one environment more than another. Methods: 1. 1. A transect measuring five meters was placed in both the woodlot and grassland found in the York University grasslands and woodlots and was observed for five minutes, from 3:30 pm to 4:20 pm, for every transect. The conditions were slightly cloudy and warm at a temperature of 22<sup>º</sup> and a Beaufort scale of 4. 2. 2. The abundance of birds, number of bird species and the frequency of each species was counted from the transect. Meta-data: Abundance of birds: amount of birds observed in five minutes for each transect and the data is continuous Number of Bird Species: amount of bird species observed in five minutes for each transect and the data is continuous Frequency of Species: the number of times each species is observed in five minutes for each transect and the data is continuous
