This exercise was taken place in Mr. John Gough’s property, ‘Pamplemousse Park’, 95 Mc Leans Ridge Rd, Wollongbar, Northern NSW. The plantation is a mixed-species rainforest, established in 1997. Equipment required for this practical exercise was clinometer, diameter tape, 30-measuring tape, basal area prism, point sampling ‘dendrometer’, ruler, calculator, booking board and writing implements
2.2. Methods
There were two methods used in this exercise, including plot measurement and point sampling. Each followed the following procedure:
2.2.1. Plot measurement
In this method, a plot was established and surveyors took the measurements of all the trees in the plot.
Fieldwork:
In group of three students, the group established a rectangular

Dionisio Point Provincial Park had a problem with woodlot owners harassing cyclings for ‘trespassing’ on their land since the early 1990’s. At first, Macmillan owned the forest area now known as the Dionisio land area, but then he broke his land into smaller woodlots to sell it to various families. The miscommunication between the buyers and Macmillan lead to the buyers believing that retirement houses could be built upon the land , which lead to the construction of an expensive road on the land. In total, there are about 100 woodlots but only 17 lots overlap with Bodega beach road. In an attempt to pressure Island Trust to absolving woodlot property issues by prohibiting ‘trespassers’ from using the roads or trails. Leaving aside the legality
First, all the materials will need to be gathered for this project, which include, fifteen plastic sandwich bags, fifteen rubber bands, a watering can, water, a Magnolia tree, a Ligustrum tree, and a Robellini Palm tree, a measuring cup, and a data sheet. Five of the sandwich bags will be labeled and tied around the Magnolia tree leaves with the rubber bands. The bags will be tied on close to one another. The rubber bands will be wrapped around
Another generous donation of BHP is the $45,000 put into McNab Regional Park. The park is a huge attraction for people of all ages; from kids in the paddling pool to senior golfing on men’s and women’s night. The park is a great area for families and friends to be active together. Through the help of BHP, the park was able to renovate some areas of the park including the pool change rooms and upgrade the power hook-ups to the campsites. As a former employee of the park I saw firsthand the need of the park in order to maintain its successful business. This recent renovation will give a more welcoming and up-to-date look. The park is very important to the community and provides many jobs; now that the renovations are complete people will be eager
1) On the four phase maps, indicate which sites were occupied during each phase. Indicate the size of the site during each phase by using a dot for sites less than 2 hectares, a circle for sites between 2 and 15 hectares, a triangle for sites between 16 and 40 hectares, and a square for sites larger than 40 hectares. Leave sites that were unoccupied during a particular phase unmarked (8 points).
To begin: I think they should build a big park for kid's so they can hangout in chill with other friend's are they can make new friend's at the park and they can play with other children they don't know in they might become good friend's are maybe best friend's my park will have pool playground in a side for the little baby's.
My goal for this problem is that the Privet leaves Cuyahoga National Valley Park and becomes extinct there. The Privet is taking over the plants there and the park rangers need help to cut the Privet plants down. The Privet is an invasive species that grows very tall and fast and it takes over the rest of the plants around it. My goal for this problem is to help the rangers at Cuyahoga National Valley Park by cutting down the Privet. If STEM gets permission we may be able to go back to the Cuyahoga National Valley Park and finish cutting and getting rid of the Privet.
This paper examines the impact of state park systems on nature recreation in the United States and how state’s demographics affect the economic impact of state parks in the US. The author uses 5 time-use surveys done from 1975 to 2007 and data from the National Association of State Park Directors’ Annual Information Exchange. The results of the fixed effects analysis used in the paper show that demographics have a limited effect on visitation to state parks in the US. While the economic impact of state parks is calculated to be $14 billion annually based on the 2.2 billion hours of nature recreation state park systems generate in the US. Nevertheless, a couple of factors, “park density per capita” and leisure hours spent per person per week,
Elk Island is unique among national parks that is fenced in and without predators. But, life without predators has resulted in so many animals living unnaturally long lives that they could soon be in danger of eating themselves out of house and home. In keeping with Parks Canada efforts to restore ecological integrity to its lands, officials
Some days after class, my friends and I enjoy going to Byrd Park to have a peaceful environment to complete assignments and study. Byrd Park is a 287-acre park with much scenery and many attractions that supplement the environment. If a day came that you decided you wanted to view the attractions or study after class somewhere other than the library, this is the place for you! It is 3 miles away and takes approximately 12 minutes in a car from J. Sargeant Reynolds Community College Downtown
Rainforests are one of the most crucial fundamentals to the preservation of human and other animal life. Globally, they are endangered and are continuously at the threat of being eradicated or damaged beyond restoration. Rainforests in Australia are just one of the countless countries with declining numbers of rainforests. Directing to significant environmental damage. This document will investigate into the endangerment of the Tasmanian rainforest. The document will achieve this through the study of Tasmanian rainforest history, the problems and causes of the rainforest deterioration, and solutions to prevent further damage.
By examining the fossilised trees of the Petrified Forest, palaeontologists have been able to reconstruct the forest, and determine the characteristics of the trees and of the environment in which they grew. Measurements of the trunks of the Araucarioxylon arizinicum trees demonstrated that they did not resemble any present-day Araucaria trees in the southern hemisphere. The Late Triassic trees were found to be tall monopodial trees with branches growing in a random manner on the trunk. The allometric Niklas methos was used to calculate the size of the trees. The results showed that the trees were very large, with the largest trunk measuring 3m in diameter, and was approximately 59m high. Many of the fossilised trunks still have their roots
In order for a national park to protect their natural and cultural values, it is crucial for managers to effectively and actively administer protocols and regulations to safeguard the ecological integrity of the park and to provide to visitors the service they desire. While managers attempt to resolve such issues, they find themselves in a predicament where conflicting goals play a problematic factor. A diversity of issues poses as threats to the flora and fauna, vegetation and landscape of parks within Canada. Over the years, the ability to control fire, introduced plant life, losses of species, urbanization and tourism have contributed to significant issues that managers face on a daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly basis.
