Assignment 4
Background:
Describe your study species:
Provide the natural history and ecology (e.g. feeding behaviors, any predators, trophic positioning, and time the species is active).
Describe mating patterns, distribution, and conservation status, if applicable.
Outline any fun facts that relate to your study species.
Study 1:
Discuss one study from Assignment 2 that examines the ecology of your species
Introduction: Introduce the main topic along with the central questions and/or hypotheses.
Methods: Be able to describe the overall experimental design and general statistical analyses.
Results: Present the results using tables and figures that were presented in the paper. Do not feel the need to present every result, but enough to get the main point of the results section.
Discussion: Provide the overall takeaway from the study. Make sure to include both your own interpretation, as well as the author’s interpretation of the results.
Bibliography:
Provide a bibliography or references cited on your last PowerPoint slide. Make sure it follows the Ecology journal format.
