Glossary:

Biodiversity:

The variety of organisms found in a given area.

“The variety of life and its processes. It includes the variety of living organisms, the genetic differences among them, the communities and ecosystems in which they occur, and the ecological and evolutionary processes that keep them functioning, yet ever changing and adapting.” Noss & Carpenter (1994)

Ecology:

The scientific study of the relationships that living organisms have with each other and with their natural environment. Ecology addresses the full scale of life, from tiny bacteria to processes that span the entire planet.

LERL:

Land East of the Railway Line (One of our conservation sites)

NWZ:

North West Zone (Another of our conservation sites)

Organism:

An individual animal, plant, fungus or single-celled life form

Habitat:

The natural home or environment of an animal, plant, or other organism. e.g. woodland, lake, deadwood

Ecosystem:

A community of interacting organisms and their physical environment. e.g. a lake ecosystem contains water, chemicals, substrate, organisms.

Community:

An assemblage of two or more populations of different species occupying the same geographical area. e.g. grassland communities include grasses, insects and birds

Succession:

The process of change in the species structure of an ecological community over time. The community begins with a few pioneering plants and animals, developing through increasing complexity until it becomes a stable climax community. e.g. a volcanic island after an eruption, or a felled woodland

Competition:

The interaction between different organisms, where the presence of one lowers the fitness of the other
