Population Abundance

Yesterday (26/10) we looked at the abundance and diversity of flora and fuana around Wyong River by counting the number of each organism within a quadrant (1m x 1m).

We need to colate all that information into one overall view of the environment around river.

Each group is to submit their table of information as a comment to this post.
