The main objectives of the study are:





1.Explain the differences in the presence and absence of foodplants, canopy openness and the feeding choice of the species WLH between sitesNR, BW and RSW.


2.Characterise quadrats in BW and RSW to identify possibly new areas for the species WLH.




The data you will need is uploaded along with this document; the statistical tests used should be at master’s level.





Variables should be outlined, data treatment and tests for normality should also be used.





1.For this task you must identify the differences in species (WLH) selection of foodplants, canopy openness and presence of absence between sites. Using the datasets provided.


2.You must use master level statistics on the data provided, any use of tests of normality and data treatment must be evident in the final paper. This should include why and how you did it.


3.Graphs and Tables should include explanations of why you chose these and how and also figures.


4.The statistical tests used should include explanation of why you chose these and how you used them on your data.


5.Variables must be outlined and explained. Information must be given on why these are such types of variables etc.


6.Using the coordinates included in the dataset, create a distance matrix between quadrats for all three sites(Including the number of species individuals recorded within each quadrat). Whilst also including explanations of how and why you did it.

1. Presence or absence is the best suitable method of sampling for determining whether or not the particular species occur in a particular area or not. Generally, the sampling method state above is applied on a qualitative basis because the area in which search is to be made and the efforts required for the same are not specifically known to the responsible persons. The best part of the same is that no special skills are required and the process of controlling requires very little investment of time.
In the food market of South Korea, the presence of wild gathered food plants were being noticed the in the year of 1989 and 1995.approximately the presence of 112 species were noticed which belonged to the 83 genera and families of 40 were located. The most common and widely available plants found were green leafy vegetables, roots of the food plants, shoots, herbs, fruits, flower food, etc. Approximately half of these plant species were being characterized into three broad families namely:
1. Asteraceae
1. Liliaceae
1. Apiaceae
The presence of these food plants or these wild food plants played an important role as at least 11 of all these species were being exported to the states of the US from the food market of South Korea.
The ability of distribution or dispersal is greatly affected in the absence of food plants, it was being noticed that due to absence in the food plants species as well as humans suffered from various causes including insects. In the absence of the food plants, the maximum expected time a human can survive was approx. 85.37 hours.
Canopy openness and a PH of the soil affects the distribution of most of the species approximately 8 out 12. The distinction among the responses whether being low abundance (less than 25%) or high abundance (greater...
