    This study was conducted to show the European buckthorn density, age and maturity, and the effects on aesthetics in the drumlin at Trent University in Peterborough Ontario during the fall of 2013. There are three main sections of forest in the drumlin, which are the Forest Fringe, the Red Pine and the Sugar Maple. The buckthorn is an invasive species that has been found in the Northern Hemisphere for many years. It is very distinct in appearance, one feature being its thorns on the ends of its branches. The results proved that buckthorn are the densest in the Forest Fringe which had 86 plants per hectare, followed by the Red Pine with 57 plants per hectare, then the Sugar Maple with 46 plants per hectare. Although the Forest Fringe was the densest, the Red Pine had on average the most mature buckthorn with stem diameters of 4 centimeters. The Forest Fringe is predicted to be the most desirable habitat for the buckthorn because of the decaying leaves on the surface of the forest. This provides the buckthorn with an increase in nitrogen rich soil, which they thrive in. The Sugar Maple forest was the least inhabited by the buckthorn due to the fact that the soil was unsuitable for the plant, lacking higher concentrations in carbon. Finally the buckthorn has the ability to support other invasive species such as the soybean aphid. In conclusion these factors have the capacity to change the environment at the drumlin, proving this to be an important issue to keep under control.…

    Throughout the course of the marking period, two books that I have read really stood out above all others. They are Dogsong and The River, both written by the same author, Gary Paulsen. This is the most obvious similarity between the two books but there are much more. They both have a teenage boy as their main character and are both about a boy embarking on an expedition. These are the general similarities, but there are also many differences between them. Now let’s go deep into each book and look at some of their unique aspects.…

    Ecology is the study of relationships between organisms and their environment which includes both physical and biological factors. Humans have a major influence on ecosystems and this is very important in the waterways of California. The American River has been influenced greatly by humans by mining for gold, pollution through humans themselves, and an immense amount of other things (Becker 1992).

    The narrators from "The Bass the River, Sheila Mant" and "American History" have much in common with some distinctions throughout the stories. The narrator (TBRSM) and Elena (AH) both start by watching their neighbors from either through a window or from across the water, as they began to gain confidence to confront them. Both narrators fall in love, in TBRSM the narrator mentions how he finds Sheila Mant the only thing lovelier than a bass and in AH Elena's mother says, "'Elena, you are acting... Enamorada,'". Although, the narrators share these similarities their stories take different turns. Elena was not in love with Eugene when they first met, unlike the narrator who was with Sheila Mant. Also, in "The Bass the River, Sheila Mant,"…

    An estimate of 90 million acres was abode to this ecosystem in southeastern America prior to the establishment of colonies. Particularly as a result of human activity and changed forestry customarily; the recent decrease of naturist fire, longleaf pine forests has been reduced to less than three million acres today. Researchers have established that 187 rare plant species are associated with the longleaf pine ecosystem (27 federally listed as harmful or endangered). Most of these species flourish in the understory of longleaf pine forests because they have acclimated to a regularly-burned environment (gadnr.org). Without fire, many of these species would be choked out by faster developing non-fire-adapted species and over population over the last several decades. How humans may have affected biogeochemical cycles in the Lake Allatoona ecosystem, comprised by impacts to the nitrogen, phosphorus, or carbon cycle. Due to increased population, construction of new roads being developed, and habitat fragmentation, flames regularly seen in southern forests have become drastically decreased. Today, if the Lake Allatoona forest is not…

    High above the broad valley of the Mississippi reposes an expansive and indestructible mansion. The view it possesses is extraordinary. In autumn the valley blazes with gilded trees, swept with scarlet. The winter’s display is scarcely less lovely, for the valley’s forest is wrapped in the finest lace, while in the spring and summer, it alive with song. Along the brim of the valley lies Summit Avenue, lined with a collection of the stateliest homes in the Mid-west. But the grandest of them all is the wide, Romanesque style mansion. The owner of this manor was an “Empire Builder” of the American sort; James J. Hill, Emperor of the northern railroads.…

    Official crime statistics show that males are four times more likely to commit crimes than females. Victim surveys show women to be more likely to be victims of sexual and violent assaults than males. It has also been suggested there are gender differences in punishments. And therefore different people have given their explanations for the reasoning behind this. The official crime statistics show that women commit less crime than men. Men are convicted of 80% of serious crimes, and women only make up about 5.7% of the prison population. There is also a difference in the types of crimes committed by men and women; most women are imprisoned for non-violent crimes such as theft or handling of stolen goods, which accounts for 57% of known female offenders in 2002…
