Course concepts - environment I
3 important questions on Course concepts - environment I
Temporal and spatial scale
- Temporal scale is habitat lifespan relative to the generation time of the organism, and spatial scale is the distance between habitat patches relative to the dispersal distance of the organism
Local Elevation Percentile
- Value of 0 means lowest point in neighbourhood (=valley bottom)
- Value of 100 means highest point in neighbourhood (=top of the hill)
- At the highest you find the most wind + this influences how the landscape looks
- Value of 100 means highest point in neighbourhood (=top of the hill)
- At the highest you find the most wind + this influences how the landscape looks
Animal behaviour adaptions
- Body temperature vs ambient temperature.
-Body temperature is actively regulated and animal may actively decide to temporarily allow body temperature increases and decreases
