biotope

Converse of object

• result: The resulting preliminary biotope and sub-biotope groups of records were then checked to ensure cohesion of both the environmental and species data.
• support: Our work will contribute to the modeling work of the MESH project by helping to define the physical environmental conditions that support benthic biotopes.
• dominate: The JNCC Marine Nature Conservation Review ( MNCR ) has identified four major biotopes dominated by dense M. modiolus.
• destroy: The DfT have NOT indicated if they will: · create protective zones · maintain habitats · restore destroyed biotopes · create biotopes.

Adjective modifier

• marine: The results of the MNCR program are published in two overview volumes and 15 volumes describing the marine biotopes of our coasts.
• preliminary: The resulting preliminary biotope and sub-biotope groups of records were then checked to ensure cohesion of both the environmental and species data.

Modifies a noun

• classification: JNCC are developing a computer program to help assign benthic sample data to biotopes in the national biotope classification.
• complex: Their classification can also be structured in a hierarchy ( biotopes, biotope complexes, broad habitats ), reflecting degrees of similarity.
• record: For each biotope, the figures show the percentage of core biotope records falling into a given category for a given factor.
• mapping: Alex is a BTO licensed ringer and is experienced in marine intertidal biotope mapping.
• viewer: BioMar biotope viewer: a guide to marine habitats, fauna and flora of Britain and Ireland.
• code: Include the MNCR biotope code if you know it.

Noun used with modifier

• sediment: Intertidal and subtidal sediment biotopes may cover very extensive areas of shore or seabed.
• term: The collective term biotope is now in common usage to encompass both of these biotic and abiotic elements.
• shore: There is also discussion on the sensitivity of the shore biotopes and observations of the interest recorded during the 17 month study.
