Can you guys PLEASE help me to trace a carbon atom through the taiga? i have no idea how that would work and my coach didn't explain it very well. It will greatly be appreciated if you could help me trace a carbon atom through the Taiga biome. Thanks so much. My competition is in 2 weeks from tomorrow!!!!

Check out the national power point and it will walk you trough the cycles PLUS a little of how they pertain to the Taiga AND Tundra. There is a lot of useful info in there as well about other things that you'll need to know! I would suggest looking at it and starting to make notecards over the information, my friend who is our team's main ecology person (she is amazing) has literally made hundreds of notecards and she always does amazing at competitions so i'm assuming it's the right thing to do... good luck

Well, everyone has a different way of learning. Some people make notecards and that's great if it works for them. Personally, I just read stuff and absorb it, without taking down notes, and I do copious amounts of practice questions (i.e. every single pertinent question I can get my hands on). It's different for everybody. So while notecards can be great, don't waste the time making all the note cards if you know that you learn better another way.

I know nothing! What is a TAIGA?!? :ugeek:
I went whale watching once. It was very similar to watching a group of dissapointed people on a boat.

Taiga is the forest zone that is found in northern New York, Vermont, New Hampshire, Alaska, Maine, and Canada. Google it.

I was thinking the same thing... there's wikipedia, the training handout, the training presentation, the library too (if anyone still uses that ;) )
