1. Describe where you would locate your urban forest and explain why you would locate it there. Remember to take into account major features, waterways, elevations, roads, etc. as well as climate and soils of the location. You can describe the area by noting bordering roads and features.
Hi again,
I can't see how this would be so difficult. Find a local forest on the map (use Google Maps, for example), and explain where is it located (name of the roads, major intersections, the climate, and if there are any rivers that run along the forest). All this requires is a bit of research and elbow grease, without the grease.
2. What species of trees would you plant in this forest? Consider the uses of the forest in your selection. Describe the characteristics of the species that make them appropriate for your location. Be specific and keep in mind that a wide variety of tree species are necessary for forest health, especially preventing serious insect and disease damage to your forest. Include at least 6 species.
You may want to plant trees that are native to the area. For example, if you're living in Canada, you'd plant species of Maple in a heavily Maple forest. In Google or Yahoo, type: tree species in ________ (wherever you live).
