Biodiversity Project

Regulating Services How does your ecosystem regulate daily services for us and the area that we live in? For example Filter air, avoid flood, control CO2, absorb pollution… Make sure to relate this to your food web

Provisioning Does this area provide? Food, water, fibers, fuel??? How? How do the invasive species effect the environment? How did the invasive species get here?

Support Services Analysis of all the cycles that are on earth and how they support us? Carbon, nitrogen, silica, phosphorous,water, oxygen Look at the soil tests and water tests. Explain what they mean

Cultural Services Aesthetics Recreation Learning opportunities What makes your area more unique than any other groups ecosystem?
