were just trying to find out the biodiversity within this ecosystem!
Hey so what exactly are we doing ?
Well that was easy, this ecosystem is full of diversity, I mean look around its all green and there are many species around. I think we are ready to go!
It doesn't really work that way.....The area may seem diverse but there is much more to it than just a simple glance
Whatever you say, but I still think its fairly diverse
In order to better determine the biodiversity well preform 2 methods of data collection
yea, you do that for 100 ft, and Ill do the same thing but at every 5 ft for 100ft. We'll cover the same area
this should be fun...you get to stop and I dont ??
okay, should I just count how many species I see for a certain distance? or....
Hey! Im all done. Well I collected lot of data, tons of things touched our transect! COME ON!!
wait up. My method is far different from yours. Im stopping every five feet
well now we can compare I got x
well obviously your number is going to be greater....you took note of everything
yea thats true, so which one should we use?
I think it depends. Both methods tell us that the area is divers, but they do so by talking different situations into account
