Dear Alexander,
An interesting tree you've created here with all those nice suggestions,
but I must ask - what is exactly your research about? As you posted at the
beginning here, you are... "researching the natural plant communities of
forest parks. If space syntax works – and I am convinced it do work -
there should be some kind of correlation between recreational disturbance
of plant
communities and axial map of roads".
While I agree with the syntax method, I wonder what is it you are wishing
to find? from my limited knowledge on plant communities It is quite known,
that there is a correlation, however, it is very much depend on other
factors as well, such as the types of plants you are investigating,
weather its reproduction system is vegetative cloning or seeds; the type
of soil, etc...further more, if your study is at Masters level, I would
have restricted my case study to a very specific plants family, under a
certain aspect of interaction, (for example, the influence of
cyclists/pedestrian movement on the location and growth of carex
communities)
It occurs to me this research might assist you -
