Hi all,

 

Well the college year is almost up. Trying my best to plow through assignments to get them done on time.

 

Im stuck!

 

Here is the question:

 

With the aid of diagrams show how canopy structure and species composition differs between broadleaved woodland and a conifer plantation. You should include.

 

• Layers of vegetation
  
• Classes of tree in canopy
  
• Species present in different layers
  
• Height of layers
  

 

End of question.

 

I am struggling to find any decent information about this, can only find info for rainforests. I want to stick with info about UK forests/woodlands etc.

 

Any pointers would be great, Links etc..

 

Thanks guys,

sounds very simple. but try looking for pictures of a broadleafed woodland, then a conifer plantation, look at the diffrences.

if i were doing it id be looking at google earth, spotting a nearby plantation (gonna be a dark green matt with parrallel lines of planting visible) and spotting a nearby woodland. take a day out and go visit them, the answers will literally be infront of youre eyes, you will learn a heck of a lot more viewing it than copying it off the net!

goodluck
