Biotic and Abiotic Factors

?
We measure this by using a light meter by holding up the probe and reading the meter.
Light Intensity - Abiotic
1 of 6
We measure this using a moisture meter. We push the probe into the ground and take a reading.
Soil Moisture - Abiotic
2 of 6
We measure this using a pH meter. We push the probe into the ground and take a reading.
Soil pH - Abiotic
3 of 6
We measure this using a thermometer. We hold it up for 30 seconds then take a reading.
Tempreture - Abiotic
4 of 6
Can be used to sample insects. As they walk over the leaf, they fall in and are trapped.
Pitfall Trap - Biotic
5 of 6
This is used to sample plants. This is placed at random and the number of squares containing plants are counted.
Quadrat - Biotic
