Essay

Refer to the figure.
Figure 1
You are working with a town to develop a conservation strategy for parks (tracts) of protected land in a suburban area (parks A-G). These seven areas are depicted in Figure 1. Each square in the grid indicates an area of 1 km².
-Refer to Figure 1 to familiarize yourself with the key aspects of the protected areas. Based on how forests in the park respond to edge effects, do you think that increased temperature alone could explain the biotic response (tree mortality) to edges seen in these examples? Why or why not?
