Native plants are plants that are indigenous to a particular area or region. In North America we are referring to the flora that existed in an area or region before European settlement. Native plants occur within specific plant communities that vary in species composition depending on the habitat in which they are found. A few examples of habitats are tidal wetlands, woodlands, meadows and dunelands.

Some grow fast and die young, others grow slow and live a long time. Some trees colonize new soils and new space, while other trees survive and thrive in the midst of old forests. A number of trees invest in leaves which survive several growing seasons, while other trees grow new leaves every growing season. One of the most intriguing and beautiful result of tree life strategies is autumn leaf coloration among deciduous trees.

  • Rethinking Webcomics: Webcomics As a Screen Based Medium
    Dennis Kogel Digital Culture Department of Art and Culture Studies 16.01.2013 MA Thesis Rethinking Webcomics: Webcomics as a Screen Based Medium JYVÄSKYLÄN YLIOPISTO Tiedekunta – Faculty Laitos – Department Humanities Art and Culture Studies Tekijä – Author Dennis Kogel Työn nimi – Title Rethinking Webcomics: Webcomics as a Screen Based Medium Oppiaine – Subject Työn laji – Level Digital Culture MA Thesis Aika – Month and year Sivumäärä – Number of pages January 2013 91 pages Tiivistelmä – Abstract So far, webcomics, or online comics, have been discussed mostly in terms of ideologies of the Internet such as participatory culture or Open Source. Not much thought, however, has been given to webcomics as a new way of making comics that need to be studied in their own right. In this thesis a diverse set of webcomics such as Questionable Content, A Softer World and FreakAngels is analyzed using a combination of N. Katherine Hayles’ Media Specific Analysis (MSA) and the neo-semiotics of comics by Thierry Groensteen. By contrasting print- and web editions of webcomics, as well as looking at web-only webcomics and their methods for structuring and creating stories, this thesis shows that webcomics use the language of comics but build upon it through the technologies of the Web. Far from more sensationalist claims by scholars such as Scott McCloud about webcomics as the future of the comic as a medium, this thesis shows that webcomics need to be understood as a new form of comics that is both constrained and enhanced by Web technologies. Although this thesis cannot be viewed as a complete analysis of the whole of webcomics, it can be used as a starting point for further research in the field and as a showcase of how more traditional areas of academic research such as comic studies can benefit from theories of digital culture.

    RHETORICAL TRANSFORMATIONS OF TREES IN MEDIEVAL ENGLAND: FROM MATERIAL CULTURE TO LITERARY REPRESENTATION Jodi Elisabeth Grimes, B.A., M.A. Dissertation Prepared for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS December 2008 APPROVED: Robert K. Upchurch, Major Professor Nicole D. Smith, Committee Member Jacqueline Vanhoutte, Committee Member David Holdeman, Chair of Department of English Sandra L. Terrell, Dean of the Robert B. Toulouse School of Graduate Studies Grimes, Jodi Elisabeth. Rhetorical Transformations of Trees in Medieval England: From Material Culture to Literary Representation. Doctor of Philosophy (English), December 2008, 212 pp., 7 illustrations, bibliography, 301 titles. Literary texts of medieval England feature trees as essential to the individual and communal identity as it intersects with nature, and the compelling qualities and organic processes associated with trees help vernacular writers interrogate the changing nature of this character. The early depiction of trees demonstrates an intimacy with nature that wanes after the tenth-century monastic revival, when the representation of trees as living, physical entities shifts toward their portrayal as allegorical vehicles for the Church’s didactic use. With the emergence of new social categories in the late Middle Ages, the rhetoric of trees moves beyond what it means to forge a Christian identity to consider the role of a ruler and his subjects, the relationship between humans and nature, and the place of women in society. Taking as its fundamental premise that people in wooded regions develop a deep-rooted connection to trees, this dissertation connects medieval culture and the physical world to consider the variety of ways in which Anglo-Saxon and post-Norman vernacular manuscripts depict trees.
