>>479605get a 10 meter piece or string and put markers every meter. lay the string in a straight line and make a table that identifies population density (how many plants/meter per species)
great now you have a botanical data set to work with- what you do from here can go in a bunch of directions
>transplant some of the species in a new location and see if they thrive or die>make another data set for a different 10 meter stretch in the same location, but alter on of them. For example does weeding one section make its plants healthier than the other unweeded section, or does adding something to the soil improve population health?pop health can be measured in number of offspring (counting seeds on plants or waiting for new sprouts) or by plant biomass (pulling all of the plants up by their roots and weighing them)
