The table below shows the number of individuals counted for nine species of birds on transects in logged (where trees were cut down) versus unlogged areas of tropical rainforest. Examine the data and describe the general patterns you see. Also tally species richness and calculate H (Shannon Index) for each site. What do these numerical summaries tell you about the relative biodiversity of the two sites?
