Calculate The Monthly Precipitation For Each Month Of 2008

415 Words2 Pages

2) Calculate the total precipitation for each month of 2008 and 2010. Report them in a Table for both 2008 and 2010. Table one below shows the monthly precipitation (cm) at Onondaga Park, Syracuse, NY, for the years 2008 and 2010. This data was obtained by using data that were provided for us to complete this project from the upper Onondaga Park Data for both 2008 and 2010 where daily precipitation were measured each day for 365 days over the course of those two years. To determine monthly precipitation, the sum of daily precipitation volumes were calculated for each month for 2008 and 2010.

3) Generate a XY scatter plot showing the monthly data for each year, in relation to monthly normal precipitation. To show the relationship …show more content…

Figure two below illustrates monthly precipitations data for each year at Onondaga Park, Syracuse, NY in the years 2008 and 2010. These volumes were articulate as a percentage of the monthly normal precipitation for each month of the year. To compute this number, the deviation from normal in percentage, the equation below was used:
((Monthly Precipitation in cm)-(Normal Values in cm))/(Normal Values in cm)*100
Based on the volume computed using the equation above the bar graph was generated, the upper bars, that are above the zero deviation from normal in percentage illustrates the wettest months in Syracuse for years 2008 and 2010. The lower bars below the deviation from normal in percentage shows the dries months in Syracuse for years 2008 and 2010.

5) Generate a table comparing the annual precipitation (total amount and percent deviation) to the 30-year normal. Table two below shows a comparison of the annual precipitation (total amount and percent deviation) to the 30-year normal. To find these volumes the sum of each volume for the Monthly Precipitation (cm), the Annual Precipitation (cm), and the Deviation from normal (%) were computed. The Normal Precipitation (cm) is the same for both 2008 and 2010 since those years are within the 30-year

    Freshwater is also looked at as floodplain management is observed. The patterns of environmental quality are also examined. My hypothesis is that pH levels and drainage account for the significant differences in vegetation between the areas. This is because both drainage and pH levels play a role in what type of soil is available. The pH level determines the types of plants that grow and the drainage effects the type of soil present, which influences the

For instance, estimation of desertified area or ESAs (Environmentally Sensitivity Areas) (11) for each year –1994, 2004 and 2014 – will be based on four indicators (NDVI, Albedo, Soil moisture and Sand dunes). The selection of these indicators based on many studies. For instance, the selection of the best indicators to monitor and assess the desertification in arid and semiarid region seen a lot of evolution.

Unlike the summer, the winter is strongly moderated by Georgian Bay. The expected number of frost-free days is 140. As the lake is in a snow belt caused by the lake end effect, it receives at least 2.5 m of snow. The lake effect also contributes to the total annual precipitation of 100 cm.

    To graph population or disease, we needed to use exponents; in equation-form, the exponent was an X, but it could be substituted for any number, which would represent the year. You would also find the current population or number of cases and divide them by the amount the previous year (the starting number) and add that to one to find the rate, which would show you if it was growth or decay. Finally, you use the starting number as your constant or y-intercept. If you were trying to graph the decay of a population, the equation could be: y=150,000(1.5)x; if you were trying to graph decay, the equation could be: y=150,000(0.5)x. You can replace X with any number (number of years) to find the population in the future (positive number) or in the past (negative numbers).

    Bernardo Garcia UIN 32500959 The climate classification system I choose to implement is based on two variables the Average Annual Precipitation in Texas [1] and the Average Annual temperature in Texas [2]. The average annual precipitation is broken down in to four range; 0 to 26 inches of rainfall, 26 to 38 inches of rainfall, 38 to 50 inches of rainfall and lastly rainfall above 50 inches. The Average Annual temperature map is broken down in 5 ranges starting from 50 F-55 F, 55 F – 60 F, 60 F – 65 F, 65 F-70 F and finally 70 F above. By paring the range of the temperature map and the precipitation map give me 14 category to show both the rainfall by inches and temperature by Fahrenheit, with this information I can discern on where the best place to plant plants or crops

He says “History is an ever-changing beast because of accounts told by different people, ranging from eminent historians to the common folk who experienced the event.” meaning no matter what history will change everyday just by hearing from someone that was there that saw what happened, in other words history will always be different depending where you go as well as who you ask.
