...Camp Kedron...
On the excursion to Camp Kedron, each group recorded results from within their quadrats for a variety of characteristics. The following information is is needed to summarise this effectively. The way that the results are presented here is deliberately inadequate for your own practical reports because it is not set out effectively, and does not generate all the required figures. Use it to help you construct more valid and complete ways to present your results.
Underlined words are usually HYPERLINKS to pictures or other pages! Photos are courtesy of Alexander Kwa and Steven Gao. (not all links are finalised yet - keep checking!)
