Project:

Comparison Of The Plants In A Salt Marsh Ecosystem And Temperate Forest Ecosystem

Students:

School:

Sunset Park High School, Brooklyn

Mentors:

Megan Wallner

Abstract:

The purpose of the project is to see the relationship between the plants in the temperate forest in Prospect Park and the salt marsh in Bush Terminal Park. We are trying to see if the plants in both of the areas are related evolutionarily. The purpose of this project is also to see if the plants are invasive or native to the ecosystem based on the type of environment that they live in.
