Tasmanian Eucalyptus obliqua: Crown Structure and Arthropod Biodiversity
Crown Structure and the Canopy Arthropod Biodiversity of Tasmanian Eucalyptus obliqua
Objectives
To investigate the differences in arthropod biodiversity and crown structure between 100 year old and old-growth Eucalyptus obliqua trees at Warra Long Term Ecological Research Site, Southern Tasmania, Australia.
To examine correlations between crown structure and arthropod biodiversity.
To increase zoological knowledge of Eucalyptus canopies.
To further develop 3-d virtualization techniques of arboreal structure.
