Vascular plant species and other attributes of the garden were noted, along with rainfall, altitude, distance from natural vegetation, distance from the city and garden size.
In this process, the type of vegetation, distance to propagule source, understory, and canopy cover appear to play important roles and affect the demographic structure of the invading population.
Specifically, we targeted vegetation, distance to major roads, as well as rural, commercial, and industrial land use.
Its long neck may have evolved to reach marshy vegetation some distance away or to reach leaves higher up in trees.
Apart from the great plateaus and high mountains to the southwest, marked soil zones are formed in China according to differences in climate, vegetation, and distance from the sea.
Predictors included vegetation types, distance from the coastline, and seven terrain indices extracted from various grid sizes of DEM (5, 10, 20, 30, 40 m).
We used logistic regression models to assess the relative influence of habitat type, vegetation characteristics, distance from the nearest forest/plantation edge, and year on the risk of nest predation.
The width of ridges and sloughs was found to be controlled by a lateral vegetation growth distance parameter in a simplified formulation of vegetation growth, which complements earlier modeling results in which a differential peat accretion mechanism alone did not reproduce observations of ridge and slough lateral wavelengths.
Growth rates for shrimp held in mesocosms for approximately 7 days were compared among four locations and three treatments; locations were identified by the dominant marsh vegetation and distance from the Gulf of Mexico (low to high salinity: Intermediate, Brackish, Saline UE = Saline Up Estuary, Saline DE = Saline Down Estuary).
Hidden in the vegetation and distance is the source of coveted red meat — caribou and moose.
The presence of riparian vegetation and distances to spring, summer, and fall sheep or cattle pastures, calving and sheep lambing areas, unmanaged boneyards, and fenced and unfenced beehives were all associated with the likelihood of human grizzly bear conflicts.
