Migratory Versus Non-Migratory Bird Populations Across Three New York City Locations
January 16, 2016
The aim of this study is to compare the number of migratory vs. non-migratory birds from the data collected across the three New York City BioBlitz locaons (Central Park 2013, The New York Botanical Garden 2014,Freshkills Park 2015). http://eportfolios.macaulay.cuny.edu/seminar3posters/files/gravity_forms/2-6a6a604a5c2187e7fef8e857ad947746/2016/01/ODONNELL2015BirdPoster.pdf Francisco Barros, Chloe Chia, Adrian Logan, Rebekah Wallner Kelly ODonnell, Andrew Lucchesi City College bioblitz

The Educational Effectiveness of BioBlitz
December 18, 2014
Studies have shown that citizen science and events such as BioBlitz can education those who volunteer as citizen scientists. Proving that this was also the case for the MHC BioBlitz at NYBG will support the idea that BioBlitz is a worthwhile educational tool for MHC. http://eportfolios.macaulay.cuny.edu/seminar3posters/files/gravity_forms/1-f14ea90e75361cb91bd42582a860ee01/2014/12/PM-Education.pdf Annalise Armenta, Dane Fearon, Yeji Chun, Saif Choudhury Kelly […]

Comparing Bird Diversity between The New York Botanical Garden and Central Park
December 18, 2014
Central Park and the New York Botanical Garden are home to over 200 different species of birds, providing them with food and natural habitat to flourish in. Bird diversity is important to us because birds aid in seed dispersal and enhance our city’s aesthetic value. The birds also provide ecosystem services. http://eportfolios.macaulay.cuny.edu/seminar3posters/files/gravity_forms/1-f14ea90e75361cb91bd42582a860ee01/2014/12/PM-Birds.pdf Stephin Jose, David […]

Impact of an Environmental Learning Experience
December 18, 2014
Living in an urban setting influences the way people interact with their environment. There are challenges and disconnects between the natural surroundings and the artificial ones, and the way these things are taught in the classroom are not always inclusive of that fact. A 2010 study published in the Journal of Park & Recreation Administration […]

Bee Diversity in New York City from 2003 to 2014
December 18, 2014
Global bee population has declined significantly in recent years. While Colony Collapse Disorder has been cited as a potential cause, there is no conclusive solution to this problem. The goal of this group was to examine bee species diversity in NYC, through BioBlitz data from four years, from three locations: 2003 (Central Park), 2005 (Bronx […]

The Effects of Bioblitz on College Students’ Perception of Invasive Species as a Threat to Biodiversity
December 12, 2014
“We hypothesized that during Bioblitz, students would have been educated on the types of invasive species and how they could harm native species and thus, this would lead to more concern and support for the protection of native species.” http://eportfolios.macaulay.cuny.edu/seminar3posters/files/gravity_forms/1-f14ea90e75361cb91bd42582a860ee01/2014/12/InvasiveSpecies_Bioblitz.pdf Tahsin Alam, Sarah Kabariti, Tasnia Mahmud, Keerteshwrya Mishra Tara Cornelisse, Jennifer Corby Brooklyn College BioBlitz, […]

Impact of Human Activity on Biodiversity in Central Park
December 12, 2014
“Our objective was to analyze the different types and population counts of species in Central Park and determine to what extent different human activity influences levels of species diversity throughout the park.” http://eportfolios.macaulay.cuny.edu/seminar3posters/files/gravity_forms/1-f14ea90e75361cb91bd42582a860ee01/2014/12/FINISHED-MACAULAY-POSTER2.pdf Julia Buczynski, Katherine Chiu, Siena Edwards, Sherry Oommen Tara Cornelisse, Jennifer Corby Brooklyn College Biodiversity, Central Park, Human Activity, Google Earth, Bioblitz
