Transects

We surveyed 10 plots of land, called "transects" that were 25 sq. meters each. Starting on BBMR trail, we began to haphazardly survey land after every 5 minutes of walking that we did. This allowed us to survey the entire western half of the trail! On each slide, we've included a photo of the site, the GPS coordinates, and the species we found there.

How to View

Don't worry, we aren't trying to tell you what to think. We know that there is a lot (and we mean a LOT) of information on this page. We just to create the easiest reading experience for you! So, make sure to check out the blurbs with each section of data.  

Some Data

Below is the raw data from each of our plots. WE included the transect and species totals for your viewing pleasure

What does it all mean?

Well, the short version is that we know where all the plants are in Late April to Mid May. The long answer could be a bit more complex. By knowing the current distribution of the wildflowers, we could learn a lot about the insect and animal populations in those areas.
