Introduction
• Two very different ecosystems.• Biodiversity determining factor for
ecosystems’ value.• Biomass accumulation.

Biodiversity
• Degree of variation in organisms within a biome, an ecosystem, or an entire biosphere.• Harsh conditions shaped ecosystems.• Proximity to shoreline.• Diverse zootomy and phytotomy.

Flora
• Sub-forest species.• Plant adaptations.• Diversity.• Pollution.

Conclusion
G.S.F. is more diverse than the C.N.F. Climate duality. Location. Fauna. Flora.

Individual Member Impact
• Bird survivability at G.S.F.• Human conscience.• Plant adaptation to resist aridity.• Plant use for basic needs.• Human influence: use vs. abuse• Wind shearing.
