For this lab we collected data in York University on monday september 22 2014, this is the sample data sheet for excercise 4. For this data set Farnaz used transect to measure the circumference of trees and bahar recorded data. Other members of group helped to collect the data. We choose White oak species that were easily observable, and then we randomly chose adult whiteoak trees for every sapling. Then measured the circumference and DBH (Diameter at Breast Height) of both sapling and adult trees. ALso, in addition we as a group of 4 measured the canopy coverage percentage.The canopy coverage was estimated for adult white oak trees in percentage; this was done by making a square with one's fingers, pointing them up and the estimate of the percentage of the cover provided by the canopy.The total population of trees were 10 pairs of spling and the adult white oak trees.
