Question 1: Use your understanding of biodiversity patterns and ecological or evolutionary concepts to propose a specific, testable hypothesis describing how Australia Bushfires impacted forest biodiversity. Be sure to explain the rationale for your hypothesis.
Question 2: Use your understanding of the scientific method to propose a detailed plan for testing your hypothesis. What data would you collect and how would they collect that data?
Question 3: Develop a local conservation plan for post-fire recovery. Use your understanding of ecology and evolution to propose at least one specific strategy that you think could aid in conserving or restoring forest biodiversity
Question 4: Identify, define, and explain an ecological concept that is relevant to the problem.
Question 5: Identify, define, and explain an evolutionary concept that is relevant to the problem.
