Fire Ecology Paper
For Quercus suber create your own version of what its record would look like if it was included in the Fire Effects Information System database:
https://www.feis-crs.org/feis/Links to an external site.
Your record should include the following sections:
Disturbance and Occurrence (20 points): A description of where this species can be found and common associated plants and animals. Descriptions should include elevation, topography, and site conditions.
Botanical and Ecological Characteristics (40 points): A description of the general morphological traits, and physiological properties associated with this plant.
Fire Ecology (60 points): A description of fire adaptations and fire regimes associated with this species.
Fire Effects (40 points): A description of the observed post-fire effects associated with this species such as survival, direct and delayed mortality, reestablishment, etc.
Management Considerations (20 points): A description of management considerations associated with this species.
References (20 points): A list of references – please limit websites to <25% of total references.
The expectation is that this report should be 8-10 pages in length of single-spaced (11-12 pt font). This number of pages should include pictures and graphics. Please make sure that these pictures and graphics are smaller than 50% of a page.
Take a look at these examples as a general idea of what these reports look like:

Innovation for Sustainability Projects
Innovation for Sustainability Projects
are you looking for a project to submit in the field of sustainability, environment, conservation, or sustainable development?
We sell winning innovative projects for sustainability
Look at an example like this requirements. We can help you create simpler and more complex projects.
The purpose of this assessment is to test whether you are familiar with different categories of innovation, their relationship with wider systemic change and how they can contribute to specific framings of sustainability. An appreciation of context-sensitivity and an ability to clearly apply the theoretical ideas in the module in an academic style is also being assessed.
Details:
You are required to write a short, 500-word descriiption of an innovation that you think has made a significant contribution to sustainability and development within a particular context. This should have taken place over the past 50 years and can be global, regional or national in its scope.
You will need to:
1. describe the innovation and how it works (20 marks)
2. explain whether it was ‘new to firm’/ ‘new to market’/ ‘new to world’ (5 marks)
3. explain what type of product/ process innovation it was, according to the Oslo Manual typology (5 marks)
4. discuss whether it was ‘incremental’ or ‘radical’ (5 marks)
5. critically evaluate whether/ how it contributed to a change in socio-technical system or techno-economic paradigm? (15 marks)
6. explain whether this had an impact on resource intensity, energy use and/or one or more of the planetary boundaries (specify which), and how? (15 marks)
7. discuss any social implications/ consequences (positive or negative) of the innovation (10 marks)
8. explain how the context (technological, socio-political, socio-economic, cultural) enabled the innovation to emerge (10 marks).
9. adopt an academic style of writing and include at least fifteen appropriate references (15 marks for five correctly-formatted references, at least five of
which are from the academic peer-reviewed literature). In all cases, use Harvard referencing style. Note that your references do not count toward the 500 word limit

Instructions
Prepare a draft document for review by your professor that includes the following:
1. a set of measurable objectives for the next three years (i.e., specific things that the organization can do to successfully implement strategy),
2. an organizational chart that would allow for the above objectives to be met. If this deviates from the current structure, develop a rationalization for the proposed new structure and steps required to move the organization to a new structure,
3. product positioning map,
4. projected income and balance statements for the next three years. These should indicate the impact of your strategy. This is not an accounting course, but you have taken accounting at this point, so draw templates for basic statements from these experiences. You will primarily be evaluated based on the logic of your information, not on the accounting principles being applied, and
5. assessment of the present value of your organization: what it would be worth in today’s market in its present state and might be worth if this strategy is successful. The course only touches on valuation, so you will be evaluated based on the logic of your information, not the valuation itself.
