This research project describes a year process of research about trees at Británico Internacional school, the species identification and inventory, later on the interactions with species of animals mostly birds for nesting and feeding, an analysis of tree growth in 5 randomly chosen species of trees located mostly to the south side of the campus and finally the correlation analysis trees have in the air and soil temperature. All of it looking forward to find a better way to support biodiversity.
