The hypothesis that I set out is the overall ecology are healthy and varies in species as more land development induced in the region.
Land development involving human activities are sort of artificial selection activity. We measured the health of ecosystems in many ways by taking into account different sides to measure their health. And the health of ecosystem depended on the landscape. Whether the landscape was actively managed by human was the independent variable, which derives in different environment where individuals shows different survival and reproduction rate. This offers an context with natural selection and artificial selection among ecological concepts.
Keywords that I would use to describe my hypothesis would include artificial selection, evolutionary fitness, vegetation abundance and diversity, bird activity, urbanization.
