Notes from class:
- You need to upload your data from the Schoolyard Quadrat Ecosystem so everybody can compile data and calculate Simpson's Index using the Biodiversity Calculator.
- This is the link explaining Simpson's Diversity Index: http://www.countrysideinfo.co.uk/simpsons.htm
- Your lab report this time needs to include and Introduction which begins with the statement of problem and ends with Hypothesis. This should be one to two paragraphs, and the information between should flow logically, explaining all terms. Later we will add more to this.
