Hello everyone,
I have to agree with Amod - it comes down to funds and jobs. I went into a

Hi,
We are presently running an experiment that examines the interactions
between annuals and Sedum plants. In the experiment, we have crossed the
dispersion (uniform or clumped) of the sedum with presence and absence of
annuals.
We are trying to quantify the developmental success of the Sedum

Hi Amiel,
I would recommend the comparative yield (CY) method for non-destructive
biomass sampling. The following citation provides an overview of the
methodology. Several of my colleagues have used the technique for effective
long-term sampling in rangeland systems.

there are not that many jobs DOING field ecology.
Most people with degrees in field ecology are doing permit work of some kind.
This is why you must take some policy courses while an undergrad.
Also, jobs in the govt are fisheries, wildlife, or forestry. They are
not field ecology.

Hi all
For those particularly interested in field ecology for instance; there are some
great programmes out there in field ecology (I have an interest in
eco-chemistry).
In CA for instance at the College of the Atlantic there is
I wish the article had addressed the issue of seed dormancy. Had those
fire-flower seeds been waiting their chance in-place for forty years, or
were they somehow transported into the burned zone after the fire?
