Oxygen/ Carbon cycle: Rain collects the carbon dioxide molecules out of the air from coal burning plants and automobiles creating acid rain.

Nitrogen cycle: Nitrogen in freshwaters is derived from rainfall and dry deposition, domestic sewage and industrial effluents, and agricultural land. Nitrogen sources in freshwaters have had increased input as a result of human activity.

Non-feeding relationships: Commensalism between avians and trees in which avians benefit while the tree is unaffected.

Abiotic factors: Acid rain caused by human activity can create “dead” lakes and streams. Mountainous areas suffer the most from acid rain, which leaches minerals into the streams and kill the fish. Excess carbon-dioxide gases block the reflection of infrared waves back into space, increasing global temperature.

Producers, consumers, decomposers: Many avian species are associated with the Cottonwood ecosystem
