Pamplemousse Park Case Study

When going to the sand dunes of the Illinois Beach State Park, we wanted to test the effects of different environment on succession, ecosystem development. The problem was to find out if there is a succession (ecosystem development) of plant communities taking place. If the sand dune’s closer to the lake are newer than those further inland, then, I believe succession will take place because the newest dunes do not have rich enough soil to support more complex plants like trees and shrubs growing in the areas that have already gone through later stage succession. The data supported our hypothesis.

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).

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

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,

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.

The park is place we like to go when we want to relax. The park is an obvious place of escaping the constraints of the life around us. People are walking around the trail, children playing on the playground, and the place generally seems to be at a more relaxed place in the park. My visit to the park was one that I thought would reveal a certain level of peace. It did.
