Leaving Certificate Habitat Study Day

The Leaving Certificate 2 Biology class will travel to Kilarney to take part in a habitat study in preperation for their exams on Friday 30th September.

Leaving Certificate Habitat Study* – A detailed study of a localised sandstone/limestone transition is made using baseline mapping in order to examine the vegetation present on each rock type. Transects and quadrats are also used to assess the effect of shade on ground plants (including measurement of relative humidity, light intensity, soil depth etc.). In a separate part to the day, Longworth small mammal traps (which have been left out overnight) will be checked, any captured animals will be examined and released, and a full explanation of capture/recapture technique will be made.
