I want to prove that when we increase the island’s size, the number of species on the island increases.  

Topic: I want to prove that when we increase the island’s size, the number of species on the island increases.

We did not do the actual observation. We used the inaturalist website (https://www.inaturalist.org) to collect data. You do not need to collect any data. I have collected all of them, but you can go to that website and look around and familiarize yourself with that website because you have to mention that in the Method section. I chose two sets of the island in three different sizes.One set in South Africa and another one in the US. Our urban parks in South Africa are Golden Gate Highlands National Park(large one), Addo Elephant National Park(medium one), Garden Route National Park (small one). Our urban parks in the US are Griffith Park(large one), Elysian Park(medium one), and Ernest debs park(small one). You have to mention them in the method section. The scientific research paper should include all parts(from introduction and method to result and conclusion). The number of words is not essential. The only important thing is including all sections in the research paper.

Result section: you have to use these tables and graphs in the result section.

Do not worry about the small size of the font of tables. Please just used them as they are. Make sure to include the tables and graphs and description below them in the result section. You need to add more things to the result section.

 

Table 1, table of a number of each species in total observation and other information like latitude, longitude, species scientific name, species common name, iconic taxon name, taxon id, taxon kingdom name, taxon phylum name, taxon class name, taxon order name, taxon family name, taxon genus name, and taxon species name in Garden Route National Park, South Africa.

There were two different species in three observations in Garden Route National Park in South Africa. We assume this park is too small, and it doesn’t have too many other species.(Table 1) As we can see, when we looked at the small island, we didn’t have various species.

Table 2, Table of a number of each species in total observation and other information like latitude, longitude, species scientific name, species common name, iconic taxon name, taxon id, taxon kingdom name, taxon phylum name, taxon class name, taxon order name, taxon family name, taxon genus name, and taxon species name in Addo Elephant National Park, South Africa.

 

There were 114 different species in a total of 237 observations in Addo Elephant National Park. (Table 2)we compared Table 1 and Table 2, so we got that as the island’s size increases, we have more variety in the number of species, and total observation increases. We assumed that Addo Elephant National Park is our medium size example.

Table 3, table of the number of each species in total observation and other information like latitude, longitude, species scientific name, species common name, iconic taxon name, taxon id, taxon kingdom name, taxon phylum name, taxon class name, taxon order name, taxon family name, taxon genus name, and taxon species name in Golden Gate Highlands National Park, South Africa.

 

There were 322 different species in a total of 818 observations in Golden Gate Highlands National Park. (Table 3)we assumed that it was our large island example. When we compared Table 2 and Table 3, and Table 1, we got that as we increase the size of our island example, we will increase the number of species in that area. (graph 1)

We also did the same thing in LA islands with different sizes like South Africa, so we make sure our result wasn’t accidentally.

Table 4, table of a number of each species in total observations and other information like latitude, longitude, species scientific name, species common name, iconic taxon name, taxon id, taxon kingdom name, taxon phylum name, taxon class name, taxon order name, taxon family name, taxon genus name, and taxon species name in Ernest debs park, LA.

There were four different species in a total of 6 observations in Ernest debs park, LA. It was our small island example in LA. Because we looked at the small island, so the number of different species is not a lot.

Table 5, table of the number of each species in total observations and other information like latitude, longitude, species scientific name, species common name, iconic taxon name, taxon id, taxon kingdom name, taxon phylum name, taxon class name, taxon order name, taxon family name, taxon genus name, and taxon species name in Elysian Park, LA.

There were 42 different species in a total of 67 observations in Elysian Park, LA. It was our medium island example in LA. If we compare Table 4 and Table 5, we understand that as we increase our island’s size, we will have more different species in our area.

Table 6, table of the number of each species in total observations and other information like latitude, longitude, species scientific name, species common name, iconic taxon name, taxon id, taxon kingdom name, taxon phylum name, taxon class name, taxon order name, taxon family name, taxon genus name, and taxon species name in Topanga state park, LA.

There were 264 different species in a total of 897 observations in Topanga state park, LA. It was our large island example in LA. As we expect, because we increased the island’s size, we had more variety in the number of species. When we compared Table 4, Table 5, and Table 6, we understand that as we increase the island’s size, we will get a

larger number of different species. (graph 2) These pattern doesn’t depend on climate, and other factors like geographical position or the island are jangle, desert, or lake. We will get the same result if we change any of these factors when we choose our islands.

When we compared Graph 1 and Graph 2, we understood that as we increase the island’s size, we will get a higher number of various species in our area. It does not depend on other factors like climate or geometrical position.
