Assignment: Ecosystem Components Paper (I live near Houston, Texas so it should be some place in the State)
*Select a representative natural ecosystem in your area or one that you are interested in-such as a lake, preserve, or park-that is managed for native species.
o The major structural and functional dynamics (processes) of that ecosystem including change over time
o How humans may have affected biogeochemical cycles in that ecosystem, including impacts to the nitrogen, phosphorus, or carbon cycle
o How knowledge about that ecosystem's structure and function can help or has helped to develop plans for its management and restoration
o The implication of species interactions in ecosystem management and restoration.
