    Extractions: Denver Field Ornithologists Our mission is to promote interest in the study and preservation of birds and their habitats. Members are encouraged (through meeting presentations and field trips) to learn about birds in the field, noting species and numbers, while familiarizing themselves with their songs and calls, as well as habits and habitats. O ur club was formed in 1935. The Lark Bunting, our monthly newsletter has been in existence since 1965, publishes the scheduled field trips for the upcoming months (about a hundred each year), and lists the sightings from previous months, along with notices and announcements of interest to our readers. Membership and donations to our club provide the funding source for our services. Membership is open to anyone interested in birds of the Denver area in particular, and the birds of Colorado in general. M embership is $20 per year. Student (age 18 or younger) membership is $5 per year. Applications for membership should be sent to the Treasurer (see address below). A membership application form is attached to the back of the Lark Bunting. Or can be downloaded from this site. W e hold regular monthly meetings on the first Wednesday of every month, September through May, at 7:30pm. We do not host a meeting in December. Our presentations feature leading birders in the area, who cover a variety of timely and wide-ranging topics tailored to all levels of expertise. The meetings are held at the Museum of Nature and Science in the VIP room. (Enter through the security entrance on the north side of the building. If facing the main entrance on the north side of the Museum, the security entrance is just to the left of the main entrance. A security guard will be able to direct you to the VIP room.

    Extractions: Tools for Designing With Nature Students participating in installation of a rain garden at their inner urban high school. Development patterns within the 3000 square mile Kansas City metropolitan area are greatly impacting the existence and function of natural systems. This article will focus on how communities throughout the Kansas City region are stepping up to the challenge of understanding, protecting, and incorporating natural resources into development and stormwater management. By including natural resources within the development process with the same weight as infrastructure planning, communities will be better able to reach a balance between the economic, social, and environmental aspects of growth management. Stream inventories like the Kansas City Stream Asset Inventory Phase I, used in conjunction with other regional initiatives (Kansas City Metropolitan Natural Resources Inventory and the Kansas City Region Green Infrastructure), will provide planners with the tools and strategies critical to successfully manage stormwater, prevent flooding, and provide healthy communities in the future. Impacts of Urbanization An integrative, three-tiered approach (Inventory, Prioritization, and Protection) has been developed for conducting stream asset inventories and deriving planning tools and strategies necessary to achieve successful long-term growth and stability within the Kansas City community. The goals of this approach are:

64. Slowinski National Park
    More than 50 plant associations, including about 10 forest and scrub associations, and more than 40 nonforest ones, have been distinguished in the Park.  
    http://www.staff.amu.edu.pl/~zbzw/ph/pnp/slow.htm
    
    Extractions: The symbol of the Park is a seagull ( Larus argentatus ), an outline of a dune and blue water. Slowinski National Park was established on January 1 1967. Originally, a plan to create a national park by the sea-side was considered just after the Second World War in 1945. The total area of the Park is 18,618 ha. Of this area, water covers 53.9 %, forests 24.5 %, beaches and dunes - 5.1 %, swamps and moors 7.7 %, meadows and pastures - 8.1 %. The name of the Park originates from an old ethnic group - Slowincy - Slav progeny, who have lived in this area for ages. A skansen in Kluki, which presents their culture, is one of the Park's attractions. The number of visitors reaches up to 800 000 annually. The park preserves the most beautiful part of the Baltic southern coast, with the biggest sandy dunes in Europe, which move under the influence of strong, stormy winds. To preserve the plant cover, forests, peat, diversity of fauna, and beautiful landscape, some 15 strict reserves, with the combined area of over 6,650 ha, were established in the Park. The Park was recognized as an outstanding natural value and registered on the World List of Biosphere Reserves in 1967. The inclusion of this Park on the list demonstrates its particular importance for the world's nature conservation at a supraregional scale. Natural values Slowinski National Park is situated in the eastern part of Pobrzeze Slowinskie. The whole area is located within a range shaped by the youngest Vistulian glaciation. The predominant features of the Park's landscape are coastal lakes, beaches and dunes of different relative heights. The Czolpinko dune, which is overgrown with the pine forest, is the highest (56.5 m). The other dunes are Stilo dune (45.7 m), Gory Wschodnie with Lacka dune (42.5 m) and Lesna dune (25.7 m).

    Extractions: I possess a diversity of interests in both evolutionary biology and ecology, and in uniting these fields to study insect diversity and how it has developed. These interests include such topics as the ecological organization of insect communities, processes of population differentiation and speciation, the evolution and ecological consequences of species interactions (especially tritrophic interactions), phylogenetic systematics of parasitoid insects, and the behavioral ecology of parasitoids. I am particularly fascinated by insects with parasitoid lifestyles, especially flies in the family Tachinidae, but I am also intrigued by other parasitic/predaceous groups of Diptera as well as interactions between plants and phytophagous insects (caterpillars). Some of the primary areas of research that I am pursuing are described below. Parasitoids represent a significant fraction of all insect species, they are often important in shaping population dynamics of other insects, and they likely represent strong selective forces in most terrestrial ecosystems. In order to understand how and why parasitoids have diversified taxonomically, morphologically, and physiologically, it is necessary to know how they interact with their hosts and with their hosts food plants. My previous explorations of ecological variation in tachinid parasitism and behavioral mechanisms of host location and selection, were designed to establish ecological patterns and investigate their mechanistic causes. These studies have led me to hypothesize that mechanisms of host location are instrumental in determining the types and breadth of hosts attacked, and may have important consequences for population dynamics and speciation of tachinid parasitoids.

In the Southern Part, the annual amplitude of water level reaches up to even 4 metres, whereas the principal function of this part of the Park is to collect flooding waters for which the main impacts result from the Odra river stage, but to minor extent from the river stages both of the Warta River and within the Postomia River basin. The water level in this part of the Park raises usually in late autumn to reach its highest values in the spring-time (March-April). The Northern Part is a polder with its numerous abandoned old river channels together with a rich network of drainage facilities, that has been separated from the Warta River mainstream by means of a protective embankment. Plant associations in the area of the Park represent significant biological diversity level. More than 400 vascular plant species account for about 30% of flora in the entire Wielkopolska (i.e.

Say About Us Vol. 11 No. 4 - April 2005 Biomonitoring of Air Pollutants with Plants* By: Ludwig De Temmerman, J. Nigel, B. Bell, Jean Pierre Garrec, Since the Industrial Revolution at the end of the 19 th century it has been recognized that air pollutants can cause dramatic effects on plants. However, the first recognition in print of air pollution damage to vegetation is in John Evelyn’s book “Fumifugium” published in 1661. Biomonitoring consists of the use of responses of individual plants or plant associations at several biological organization levels in order to detect or predict changes in the environment and to follow their evolution as a function of time. Some plant species are sensitive to single pollutants or to mixtures of pollutants. Those species or cultivars are likely to be used in order to monitor the effects of air pollutants as bioindicator plants. They have the great advantage to show clearly the effects of phytotoxic compounds present in ambient air. As such, they are ideal for demonstration purposes. However, they can also be used to monitor temporal and spatial distributions of pollution effects. Standardization of methods is crucial in order to develop air quality standards based on

    Extractions: The ecology program's main objective is to describe the major plant communities within the state of Alaska. Plant communities-also called plant associations-are assemblages of species that respond similarly to environmental conditions such as climate, soil, topography, geology, and hydrology. Communities are commonly identified by the dominant and/or characteristic plant species. Our program is part of a larger effort by other Heritage Programs and NatureServe to develop a single consistent taxonomic vegetation classification for North America. This classification includes all plant communities regardless of structure (tree-, shrub-, or herbaceous-dominated) and successional status (early- to late-seral). A wealth of community-level information has been collected in Alaska. Viereck et al. (1992)*, in addition to developing the standard vegetation hierarchy for Alaska, listed all the described community types for the State in their classification. The Heritage program is adding to this list, and, where possible, crosswalking the communities to avoid redundancy in types. By migrating the available community information into a centralized database, the information will be made available to address vegetation, soil, wildlife habitat, and ecosystem management issues.

    http://www.bio.ic.ac.uk/research/jmc/cook.htm
    
    Extractions: My main interests are in the fields of evolution and ecology and my research falls into two general areas - the evolution of parasite-host associations, and the evolution of reproductive strategies. My research group is pursuing experimental work in both of these areas and much of our research exploits the replicate natural communities of wasp species associated with fig plants. In addition, we make extensive use of molecular phylogenies, evolutionary trees depicting the historical relationships between species, as determined from DNA sequences. Transposable elements are parasites of the DNA of most organisms. They are able to replicate and transpose the new copies into different positions in the host genome, leading to their common name of " jumping genes ". As well as being a significant natural force in genome evolution, transposons are now being used to introduce novel genes to target organisms, such as insect pests and disease vectors. For both reasons, it is important to understand how often and when transposons jump between different host species. This is an issue that we are investigating in a range of insect species, notably fig wasps and mosquitoes.

73. Associations Among Plants, Birds And Insects
    Birdplant associations. Many birds depend on plants for their survival and reproduction. I now want to turn to associations between insects and plants.  
    http://farrer.riv.csu.edu.au/ASGAP/APOL10/jun98-4.html
    
    Extractions: I am a trained zoologist with a special interest in birds. I grow plants, especially Australian natives, primarily because they provide a home for our native birds. I study insects because I teach entomology and because they provide food for birds. Birds are associated with plants and feed on insects - insects feed on plants and are preyed upon by birds. Before talking about these two way associations I want to talk about an intriguing three way association among birds, plants and insects. I was fortunate enough to spend 3 years of my life studying bower birds in sub-tropical rainforest in northern New South Wales. The green catbird, a monogamous bowerbird, lived and reproduced in the rainforest. It turned out that this catbird was highly dependent for its food on one plant species, the strangler fig; Ficus watkinsiana . This fig forms an emergent tree that towers above the rainforest canopy. Strangler figs were randomly distributed throughout my rainforest study area and produced an abundant crop of ripe figs regularly each year for several months. Adult green catbirds are predominantly fruit eating birds and strangler fig fruits formed the principal food item of their diet. The diet of nestling catbirds also consisted largely of fruit, mainly figs. Nearly all catbird territories contained at least one fig tree. The seeds of strangler figs germinate on the trunks and branches of host rainforest trees. The fig roots and branches form an interlocking lacework that envelops the host tree and eventually kills it, hence the name strangler fig.

About us You are here: Home Research and Collections Botanic Garden Timo Koponen and Aune Koponen The University of Helsinki is currently building a new botanical garden at Kumpula Manor, ca. 3 km N of the site of the old garden in Kaisaniemi. Creation of a completely new scientific garden offers a rare possibility to test the phytogeographical theory of bioclimatic vegetation zones. As a result of more than one hundred years of research by several generations of Finnish botanists, we now have in hand a very valuable tool: system of bioclimatic vegetation zones. This means that we know and can predict which areas abroad correspond bioclimatically to any area in Finland. This is very useful knowledge which can be applied in agriculture, forestry, and horticulture. But how can such a theory be tested? By transport experiments, moving plants between bioclimatically corresponding areas! The Botanical Garden of the University of Helsinki was established in 1678 as a herbal garden of the Academy of Turku. The garden was moved to Helsinki in 1829 in connection with the establishment of the Imperial Alexander University. Czar Nikolai I then (in 1828) ordered that an area of Helsinki City public parkland was to be given to the University for its botanical garden. The new garden was fully planted by 1833, and has been in Kaisaniemi since then. The 4-hectare garden, with its outdoor garden and greenhouses has been a remarkable resource for teaching botany not only in our University but in many other schools as well, such as the horticultural and art schools. The greenhouses are a popular tourist attraction with ca 17 000 visitors yearly.
