What do the studies of Margaret Davis tell us about the composition of forests in the Appalachian Moountains during the past 12,000 years (see fig. 1.8)?

Review Investigating the Evidence 1 – The Scientific Method – Questions and Hypotheses (pg.9), and the field studies covered in chapters 1.2 Sampling Ecological Research (pg. 3-8) (textbook Ecology: Concepts & Applications, Manuel Molles, 2013), write a brief report to respond ALL following questions: How were the warbler studies of Robert MacArthur and those that focused on the American redstart similar? How did they differ? What aspects of Nalini Nadkarni’s research identify it as “ecosystem ecology”? Give examples of research in forest canopies that would address other levels of ecological organization (for examples, see fig. 1.1).The discussion of the research by Margaret Davis and her colleagues did not identify the questions that they addressed. What research questions can we infer from the above description of their work? What do the studies of Margaret Davis tell us about the composition of forests in the Appalachian Moountains during the past 12,000 years (see fig. 1.8)? Based on this research, what predictions might you make about the future composition of these forests?
