    the data at Tables 4c.2 and 4c.3‚ it is evident that the tropical rainforest has higher species richness than the tropical grassland ecosystem. However‚ when based in the indices on Diversity‚ Similarity and Dominance in the tropical grassland and tropical rainforest data‚ the Simpson Indices favor the data for the tropical rainforest as more diverse than the tropical grassland. The Simpson Indices‚ as defined in Cuevas et. al (2012)‚ is based on dominance and as the number of dominant species in a

    The study ecological succession of two communities: tropical grassland at Barangay Putinglupa‚ Calamba City and a tropical rain forest at CFNR-UPLB. The evaluation of the grassland was used using the line intercept method while in observing the tropical rainforest‚ the quadrat method was utilized. Ecological indices were then computed using the noted number of species and area covered. Compared to the tropical rain forest‚ grasslands showed lower values for Shannon indices of diversity and evenness

    resembled the mid latitude (temperate) grassland biome of Lawrence‚ Kansas . I arrived at this conclusion by comparing the two climatogram graphs and noticing a striking resemblance. The precipitation and temperature were almost exactly the same. Although they have similar qualities‚ the two climatograms also have many distinct differences. In our local biome we can observe that there is more rain in the summer months. We also that the temperature in the Temperate Grassland is usually more warmer especially

I will be doing this investigation in a group of four students and we will be using taking samples in a quadrat and then measure the soil temperature‚ soil pH and moisture in those quadrats. Hypothesis: In this investigation‚ I expect the species richness of the pastures to be richer than the species richness of the park grassland because the pasture is used for grazing and grazed
