Humans have a major influence on ecosystems and this is very important in the waterways of California. The American River has been influenced greatly by humans by mining for gold‚ pollution through humans themselves‚ and an immense amount of other things (Becker 1992).

In Mike Davis’s‚ Ecology of Fear: Los Angeles and the Imagination of Disaster‚ he analyzes the patterns and trends of Southern California’s environment. Through his research‚ Mike Davis explains how the history of Southern California’s environment proves that California is uninhabitable. However‚ over the last century there have only been two earthquakes and no one hundred plus year droughts. Leading to the question‚ how has man made it possible to live in such an environment? Over the past few

Janisse Ray wrote the book‚ "Ecology of a Cracker Childhood."

The eggs might be fertilized by the biological father or by artificial insemination if the male has fertility issues. In other cases‚ a surrogate mother is in fact the biological mother of the child as her very

supported by literature sources. Introduction The purpose of this study is to quantitatively describe patterns of plant successional change in old-field succession in temperate mixed forest ecosystems and to describe the relation between abiotic factors and plant communities at different successional stages. Succession is described as predictable patterns of change over time and specifically‚ in ecology‚ as the predictable pattern of change in the species structure of an ecological community over
