Week 1 Assignment

Prior to beginning work on this assignment, read Chapters 1 and 2 in the course textbook. The purpose of this assignment is twofold: first, to enable you to explore a term (concept, technique, place, etc.) related to this week’s theme of sustaining Earth’s biodiversity and ecosystems; second, to provide your first contribution to a collective project, the Class Sustainable Living Guide. Your work this week, and in the weeks that follow, will be gathered (along with that of your peers) into a master document that you will receive a few days after the end of the course. The document will provide everyone with a variety of ideas for how we can all live more sustainably in our homes and communities.

To complete this assignment,

Select a term from the list of choices in the Week 1 – Term Selection Table located in the course. Type your name in the table, next to the word that you would like to choose.
Do not select a term that a classmate has already chosen; only one student per term. If you choose a term that is hyperlinked to a source, that term is one that is not mentioned in our textbook. Instead of being required to use the text as your third source for completing the assignment, you will be expected to use the hyperlinked source provided for you.

Describe what you observed as you mixed these solutions and then continue to monitor the solution recording what you see happening each minute for 10 minutes.

Procedure:

Place a few drops of red food coloring to a clear glass that contains cold water from your refrigerator (less than half full).
In a separate glass of the same type, make a saltwater solution using the same amount of water as you did in step

1. Heat that water in the microwave for1 1/2 minutes or until warm. Be careful not to burn yourself. Dissolve table salt into that warm water (mix a little at a time until it does not dissolve any further.) Then place a few drops of yellow food coloring to that solution. Mix well.

Now, slowly pour the red water solution (freshwater) into the saltwater solution (yellow solution). The slower you pour the red into the yellow the better your results will be. Hint: If you pour it so that the red solution moves down the side of the yellow container, slowly, you will recieve nice reults.

Do not stir or mix this combined solution. You should see a seperation of the two solutions, even though they are in the same container.

In a word or google document, describe what you observed as you mixed these solutions and then continue to monitor the solution recording what you see happening each minute for 10 minutes. Make a data table of these observations.

Take pictures of the mixture immediately after mixing and then after 10 minutes. Place a copy of these pictures in your lab writeup and label the pictures.
Answer the following analysis questions.
Which solution was above the other?
Why did the solutions seperate and not mix?
How does this lab help to represent what happens in estuaries?
How does this type of environment impact the organisms that live there (esturaries)?
What types of stress does this place on the organisms?
Write up this lab as a FULL lab report

Briefly describe the results of the paper (papers) you read on your topic.

Part A: List your topic and subtopic.

Part B: Describe why this is an important topic in one paragraph.

Part C: Describe the processes involved in your topic.

Part D: Briefly describe the results of the paper (papers) you read on your topic.

This should be a couple of paragraphs, at least. Be creative.

Part E: List your sources (sources should also be cited in the text – see citation documents). All the text should be in your own words and you should cite all your sources of information.

Pick whichever topic you feel most comfortable with. Similar assignment to order #630824

Determine the optimal subset of subpopulations to focus conservation effort,within budget ($500 000).

Spotted Owl metapopulation

Discipline: Environmental Sciences
Course: Population Ecology

See the instructions and guidelines. The order incorporates the use of RAMAS Ecolab software. It is essential that you’ve got access to this software (If required I’m able to provide a single-use license,but let me know if it is needed before accepting the order). One of the report requirements is to show the decline in California Spotted Owl metapopulation. It is needed in order to apply for a grant of $500 000 from a Conservation Biology Fund to improve habitat quality and prevent species extinction in California.

As a writer, you need to convince the audience and funders that they should give you the funds.

Therefore, it is required to provide evidence that the Spotted Owl metapopulation is heading for extinction. Lastly, to determine the optimal subset of subpopulations to focus conservation effort,within budget ($500 000).

Have added the digital images that present the context of the report, and instructions on how to generate the simulation in RAMAS Ecolab software. The file with RAR format contains two files that need to be used to generate the simulation in RAMAS Ecolab software. Lastly, the PDF file provides an insight into the specific guidelines on how to write the report.

The length of the report should be no more than 1500 words. Am looking for a professional who has a background in Environmental Sciences. From a broader context, it has to include a methods’ section where RAMAS EcoLab software was used. It is software to generate the simulation, and it has to show a decline in a population.

When it comes to a writing level, then it is a 3rd-year undergraduate. It is absolutely essential that all work is plagiarism-free. The final output will be checked in the appropriate software to verify that it meets its authenticity criteria.
