'FORESTS' ASSIGNMENTS, Fall 2019


RESEARCH PROPOSAL (this has multiple steps, with products due at various dates through the term; this link will give you the frame-work and due-dates for each step -- but stay tuned for modifications).
       - First step of Research Proposal (5 questions) is due MON. 30 SEPT

LAB WRITE-UPS:

I. SPECIES-AREA LAB WRITE-UP: Due Thurs. 26 SEPT

II. BEAN EVOLUTION LAB WRITE-UP:  Due Thurs. 31 OCT (costumes optional)
    Here are the data from the 'bean lab' in google-sheet format:  NOTE that the shared sheet has TWO copies of the data.  The first one includes the formulas used to calculate survivors, births, total kills, etc. Click on those cells to see how those calculations are made.  I've copied all of these into the second (right-side) copy of the spreadsheet as values only.  
    DO NOT CHANGE the shared spreadsheet!  COPY it to your own file to work with (you can copy just the right-side version; the 'values-only' format will be easier to work with for graphics).  You can also download it and work with it in excel or other format if you prefer.
    SUBMIT the discussion and answers requested on the hand-out you received in lab.

III. FOREST BIOMASS LAB WRITE-UP: Due Thurs 7 Nov
