|
Environmental changes affect the distribution of species in an ecosystem. |
|
How might changes to the environment affect species? |
|
|
|
These changes include:
- temperature
- availability of water
- composition of atmospheric gases. |
|
What are potential environmental changes? Transect to investigate the affect of light on growth of e.g. daisies, measure abundance going from tree line to open field. |
|
|
|
The changes may be seasonal, geographic or caused by human interaction. |
|
