Ecosystem Dynamics In Paluma and Crystal Creek Rainforest

Presentation / Essay (Pre-University) from the year 2016 in the subject Biology - Ecology, , language: English, abstract: The special life forms of three separate locations in the rainforest were observed and recorded to determine the impact of deforestation on the biotic and abiotic factors of the rainforest ecosystem. It was found that many of the special life forms that existed in the unlogged area of the rainforest were absent in the partially logged forest. It was also noted that the abiotic components of the sites, including the temperature, wind speed, humidity, light reading and weather conditions were vastly different. The data was very useful, but was only representative of three sites at one location. The data was based on estimation rather than exact values, which reduced the accuracy and reliability. Finally, it was decided that 1000m2 of Paluma Range National Park should not be cleared because of the ecological impacts and the economic and educational consequences.
