Aliso Viejo Wood Canyon Wilderness Park Gabriella Hernandez, Sylvia Palomera, Yasmine San Pedro, Memnon Torio, and Nick Townsend

Background of Wood Canyon   Background of Wood Canyon Part of the 19,000 - acre Laguna Coast Greenbelt and the 38,000 acre National Nature Preserve of Orange County Former land grant of Rancho Niguel Contains CSS, grasslands, chaparral, woodlands. and riparian Aliso and wood canyons wilderness park -Originally, part of the Juaneno or Acajchemem tribal land -The park is designated as a wildlife sanctuary

CSS type Conversion for Cattle and Sheep beginning 1850's 1913 Wood canyon 1960's

Transects Sites

Hypotheses (HO): There is no significant difference between the floristic communities found within stable and recovering boundaries of CSS and Grasslands (HA): There is a significant difference between the floristic communities found within stable and recovering boundaries of CSS and Grasslands

Methods Field Collection GPS coordinates Eleven 10m transects of CSS Vanguard Species Data Analysis Diversity Calculations Chi-Square Test
