1 Geography Project Vegetation in Kennedy Road Agnes Chung Kiki Ho Winnie Lee Jenna Lui

2 What are the major physical constraints to the growth of vegetation in Kennedy Road? How does vegetation adapt to such physical constraints? Use photos to illustrate your answers. Physical constraintsVegetation adaptationPhotos Heavy rainfall and high humidity in summer Thick waxy and drip tip leaves to shed excess rain from leaves

3 Physical constraints Vegetation adaptation Photos Heavy rainfall high humidity in summer Shallow roots to take nutrients from top soil due to waterlogging

4 Physical constraints Vegetation adaptation Photos Expose to heavy rain and wind Buttress roots to provide mechanical support of tress against wind and weight

5 Physical constraintsVegetation adaptation Photos High density of vegetation -> competition of sunlight Broad umbrella- shaped crown and high branches of emergent layer to catch sunlight

6 Physical constraintsVegetation adaptation Photos High density of vegetation -> competition of sunlight Broad leaves of shrub layer to compete for sunlight

7 Which vegetation in Kennedy Road impresses you most? Explain. ExplanationPhotos Many ariel roots Thick stem Huge and tall Long history Drip tip leaves Winnie Lee
