on the succession development‚ whereas others have a dramatic influence over a long period of time‚ such as human activity. These factors‚ over time‚ result in the progression of a succession until the climatic climax vegetation is reached. However‚ sometimes these factors can mean that a plagioclimax is reached‚ as they prevent the succession from progressing any further and the climatic climax vegetation is never achieved‚ which in the UK are Oak‚ Hawthorne and Birch trees. This succession results

Lab: Tuesday PM – Leah March 3rd‚ 2013 Use of Ecological Footprinting to Determine Sustainability “The ecological footprint (EF) has reached worldwide popularity in the last decade as an interesting environmental indicator‚ and its applications have been extended to different fields” (Herva et al‚ 2012). Due to the increase of the human population and activity‚ society is falling into a path of unsustainably rather then sustainability which is what should be aimed for (Hay‚ L.‚ Duffy‚ A. and

Here physical and human factors have accounted for changes to the vegetation for many years. Human factors can include tourism‚ agriculture‚ urbanisation‚ interception and deforestation. Physical factors can be such things as natural disasters‚ succession and diseases. The human factor of interception can vary between many situations. For example‚ humans can intercept and alter the vegetation through predator control. By reducing the predators which feed upon that particular vegetation encourages

There were a few key concepts and processes we used in our investigation they were Coastal deposition‚ Sand Dunes‚ Psammosere and Plant Succession. These four concepts above all fit in with my investigation for one reason or another. Coastal Deposition–The laying down of sediment‚ in a low energy environment. It occurs when large supplies of light material are moved around in rivers‚ the

The results of my ecological footprint quiz were that I was living an ecologically conscientious lifestyle‚ and I would need only 0.52 Earths. My highest consumption had been in the food footprint. I also noted that I had a really high travel distance annually‚ which was at approximately 5‚000km‚ due to a long travel to and from my university. I believe that the results reflect my lifestyle. I would say that I am pretty "eco-friendly." When I go grocery shopping‚ I bring my own bags instead of using

42% of the average carbon footprint is made up of recreation‚ leisure‚ clothing and food which nowadays require heavy industrialization. Likewise‚ other ecological economists such as Herman Daly and Tim Jackson recognize the inherent conflict between consumerism and ecological degradation. Furthermore‚ at the annual meeting of the Ecological Society of America‚ William Rees of the University of British Columbia said that human society is in a “global overshoot”‚ which can unfortunately jeopardize

My ecological footprint suggests that I am being sustainable and environmentally friendly. I need 1.38 fewer Planet Earths than the average person in Ontario in order to provide for my resources. Most of my footprint is based on food and services‚ from my almost everyday meat consumption and the large grouping of electronic devices and products I use every day. My footprint shows a Western lifestyle. Our lives here in North America are based around capitalistic ideals of materialism and over-consumption
