Final year project ideas
1. Aquaponics and fish farming
Optimum nutrient levels for growth in different plants
Fish produce ammonia which can be used as fertiliser for plants
Plants filter water by taking up fish waste
2. Comparison between different types of fungi and their ability to decompose lignin and
cellulose
Gathering and identifying fungi
Cultivating fungi
3. Relationship between distribution of mycorrhizal fungi with birch and pine; and their effect
on heaths changing into woodland.
Effects of management such as grazing and burning on fungi
4. Breeding bird survey and habitat improvements and limitations
Secondary data population numbers
Rare species survey
5. Effects of climate change across different habitats
a. Use of a lot of secondary data
Find sensitive species which can help show differences.
