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: Why is the number of top-level (3rd level and higher) consumers usually so much smaller than the number of producer organisms in any given food chain? [5]
Report TSOTS peer scores TODAY!
Ecology Quiz #1 (biogeochemical cycles, energy flow through ecosystems, food webs, and specific community interactions) [30]
Understanding climate and climate diagrams [30]
Complete part II of Ecology Field Day (due first day back from break) OR work on Ecosystem map posters (due 10/13) [30]
Get new stamp log (#2)
OUTSIDE OF CLASS:
Finish Ecology Field Day and ESLP (if necessary/possible)

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]
