English Ivy (Hedera helix L) is an invasive plant native to Europe. It was introduced to the US as an ornamental groundcover but has spread widely. It thrives in moist, partially shaded soils and can climb trees and spread across the ground. English Ivy competes strongly with other plants by blocking sunlight and weakening trees. It has become a serious threat in forests and open areas across eastern US and parts of the west by aggressively invading all vegetation levels as an groundcover and canopy climber.

GRASSLANDS
Overview
The purpose of this chapter is to help readers visualize the vast
scope of forages in the world by defining, locating and
describing the great grasslands of the world. Discussion of
general concepts of grasslands also will alert readers to the
need for understanding the fragile balance between plants,
soils and animals in each grassland location.
To feel you have mastered this first chunk of the book, you
should be able to name the grasslands of the world and
recognize the many terms for grasslands in various countries/
regions. You should have a concise definition of grasslands
and how they vary from other vegetative areas. And you should
be able to discuss some of the issues grasslands currently
face.
Definition of Grasslands
When visiting the Grand Canyon for the first time it is only
natural to wonder what the first explorers must have thought as
they strolled through the woodlands and suddenly before them
a massive but magnificent ditch came into view.
/ FORAGES / 6
Similar feelings must have been experienced by those
approaching the extensive grasslands of the world. The steppe
of Eurasia extends from Europe to China; the prairies of
America have been called an ocean of grass, and many settlers
were too overwhelmed by its size to venture across it.

Grassland, land containing mostly grasses, covers about 2/3 of
the land masses of the world and makes up 1/4 of the earth's
surface. Grassland refers to that biome dominated by grasses,
species of the Poaceae family (previously Gramineae). *A
biome is “a large geographical area characterized by certain
types of plants and animals.” Examples are forest, grassland,
freshwater, marine, desert, and tundra.

Fauna and vegetation of a tropical rainforest
Tropical rainforests are home to over half of the world's species and play an important role in regulating global weather and storing carbon. They are under threat, having been reduced to less than 5% of the original coverage. The document then describes some examples of the rich biodiversity found in tropical rainforests, including animals like the golden lion tamarin, jaguar, capybara and poison dart frogs. It also discusses plant life, highlighting carnivorous pitcher plants, orchids, bromeliads and other vegetation that provide shelter and food for rainforest wildlife.
Grasslands
Grasslands are biomes dominated by grasses rather than trees. They are found across North America, Eurasia, South America, South Africa, and Australia. Grasslands develop in areas with moderate rainfall between 250-800 mm and periodic droughts that prevent the growth of forests but support grasses. Grazing animals and fires help maintain grasslands by preventing the growth of shrubs and trees. Human impacts like plowing for crops, overgrazing, and replacing native plants with domesticated species have degraded many original grasslands.
Australia's Endemic Species
The document provides information about endemic flora and fauna of Australia. It includes sections on echidnas, Banksia nutans plants, dingos, Agonis plants, scrub birds, red kangaroos, eucalyptus trees, hakea flowers, lyrebirds, bat-leaved flowers, Tasmanian tigers, bilbies, and desert spinifex grass. The organisms are described and their key adaptations to the Australian environment are discussed, such as spines, claws, roots, leaves, flowers, pouches, and other physical traits that allow them to survive in Australia's diverse habitats and climate.
Endemic species of plants
This document discusses several endemic plant species found only in particular geographic regions. It describes the sagebrush, an endemic plant well-adapted to the Great Basin National Park region with a root system that can extend 90 feet to collect water during infrequent rains. It also briefly describes several other endemic plant genera including acacia, found only in Australia; alpine plants adapted to alpine environments like the Alps; rhododendron including many species in Asia; and pinophyta, cone-bearing gymnosperms including most conifers.

Photos were provided by classmates on a field trip.
Fauna and vegetation of a tropical rainforest
Tropical rainforests are home to over half of the world's species and play an important role in regulating global weather and storing carbon. They are under threat from deforestation and habitat loss. The document describes several species found in tropical rainforests, including the golden lion tamarin monkey, jaguar big cat, capybara rodent, poison dart frogs, and monarch butterfly. It also discusses tropical rainforest plants such as the Asai palm fruit, hardwood Tabebuia tree, carnivorous pitcher plants, orchid flowers, and water-holding bromeliad plants.
Earwigs Integrated Pest Management
Earwigs are common garden pests that can damage seedlings, soft fruits, and flowers. The most common species in California is the European earwig. Earwigs seek dark, moist places to hide during the day and feed at night. Females lay eggs in the fall that hatch in the spring, and there is typically one generation per year. Earwigs can be managed using traps baited with oils or other attractants, removing hiding places like debris and weeds, and reducing moisture levels in the garden. While earwigs may damage some plants, they also prey on other garden pests like aphids and generally do not pose health risks to humans.

Write a to paper about genetically vigorous.docx
Genetic diversity is important for long-term population viability and supports biodiversity. A lack of genetic diversity threatens survival, as seen in populations like the Florida panther which faces health issues due to inbreeding. Population management considers conservation values and aims to balance costs and benefits through efforts like reintroducing invasive species. Conservation methods include ex situ options like zoos and botanical gardens which support genetics but can also reduce diversity, as well as in situ protections under the Endangered Species Act which helps preservation but faces challenges in enforcement.

Earwigs Integrated Pest Management
Earwigs are common garden pests that can damage seedlings, soft fruits, and flowers. The most common species in California is the European earwig. Earwigs seek dark, moist places to hide during the day and feed at night. Females lay eggs in the fall that hatch in the spring, and there is typically one generation per year. Earwigs can be managed using traps baited with oils or other attractants, removing hiding places like debris and weeds, and reducing moisture levels in the garden. While earwigs may damage some plants, they also prey on other garden pests like aphids and generally do not pose health risks to humans.

Conservation methods include ex situ options like zoos and botanical gardens which support genetics but can also reduce diversity, as well as in situ protections under the Endangered Species Act which helps preservation but faces challenges in enforcement.

Invasive Weed Survey nursing writers.pdf
- 1. Invasive Weed Survey – nursing writers Ming Cun Cheah4:20pmOur group non-native species is Ivy. Its scientific name is Hedera helix L and its common name is common Ivy and English Ivy. Ivy is native to western, central and southern Europe. 1) Areas that this plant occupies include deciduous forest edges, woodlands,hedgerows, coastal areas, salt marsh edges, and other upland areas. These areas have just the right soil type for English Ivy: wet, but not extremely wet.In its habitat, English Ivy is usually surrounded by larger organisms that it can crawl up. 2) English Ivy’s main interaction with other plants is the tree. With no preference to what kind of tree it is, the ivy will climb to the top in order to be close to the sunlight. After intense growth, the ivy eventually reaches a point where it blocks the tree’s light completely. The tree is then weakened, and there is a tendency for trees in this physical state to easily blow down during times of high precipitation and winds. 3)English Ivy is known for its ability to climb to the top. Because it tends to grow in shady, forested areas, it developed its ability to move up vertical surfaces to get closer to the sun to complete photosynthesis and to spread across the ground for nutrients. 4) 1) European colonists introduced English ivy as early as 1727. It is widely planted for its evergreen foliage and dependability as a year-round “carefree” groundcover. Although recognized as a serious weed of natural ecosystems, parks, landscapes and other areas, it continues to be sold and marketed as an ornamental plant in the United States. 2) English ivy is found throughout the eastern U.S. and in the West where it occurs from Arizona to Washington State. It flourishes under shady to full sun conditions in soils that are moderately fertile and moist but it is intolerant of drought and salinity. Habitats invaded include forest openings and edges, fields, cliffs, steep slopes, and disturbed areas. 3) Yes it has plenty of resources because English ivy is an aggressive invader that threatens all vegetation levels of forested and open areas, growing along the ground as well as into the forest canopy. 5) Citation : Tredwell, E.
