AGENDA:
Objectives: Be able to explain how an area’s climate influences/shapes the biogeochemical cycles that occur there and how this, in turn, determines the kinds of life able to exist in that place
Warm-up: If you had to argue for two organism classes (trophic levels) as being essential to the operation and survival of any ecosystem type, for which two kinds of organisms would you argue and how would you defend your argument? [5]
Community Interactions [20]
Climate, microclimates, and the Ecology Field Day [50]
Get new stamp log (#2)
Ecology Quiz #1 on next class day (biogeochemical cycles, energy flow through ecosystems, food webs, and specific community interactions)
OUTSIDE OF CLASS:
Finish Ecology Field Day
