Zonal statistics function summarizes the value of a raster within the zones of another dataset (either raster or vector) and reports the results as a Table. Maps of LU/LC, NDVI and LST were prepared for the year 1989, 1999 and 2016. To examine the spatial difference of LST according to varies LU/LC; the result was summarized using the zonal statistics tool of the ArcGIS 10. 3. subsequently, summarized LU/LC, NDVI and LST map data were analyzed using excel. Zonal statistics as table is one of important methods that used to examine the correlation between LULC and

    After observing the first spectrum, another spectrum was obtained and analyzed. Since para and ortho have similar structures but only different positions, the stretches were the same however the wave numbers were different. The second spectrum had peaks at 3364.69 cm-1, 1615.96 cm-1, 1528.95 cm-1, and 1444.80 cm-1 (Figure 6). When comparing both spectrums it can be seen that the second spectrum has stronger peaks as seen in Figure 6.…

    Hair Removal Procedures: Intense Pulsed Light Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) is a fairly new medical procedure that works on the same principal as laser. The main difference between IPL and conventional lasers is that IPL can deliver a wider variety of wavelengths, instead of just one. This results into a more targeted procedure that can easily remove hair from different areas of the body. The majority of IPL system have a set of filters that can be applied to alter the wavelength of the light.…

    For this assignment, I had to calculate my carbon footprint using three different calculators: Cool Climate Network Calculator, Carbon Calculator, and the EPA Carbon Footprint Calculator. I assessed how much electricity and natural gas was used in my student house, where 7 individuals live. I got different results from each calculator. I believe that the difference in results was due to the fact that two of the calculators were based on the footprint of the average American household, such as the Barkeley calculator and the EPA calculator. For the American based calculator, I used the zip code 14301 for Niagara Falls, NY.…

    Specific Heat Lab

    Abstract: The purpose of this lab was to show the different absorption and emission rates of three different substances. Radiation laws, albedo, and specific heat are all reasons why this is achievable. An agreed upon hypothesis is that the sand will absorb the most heat due to the number of molecules, the moss will absorb the second most because it doesn't have as many molecules as sand, but it has more than water, which isn’t as complex. To complete this experiment, you need three beakers of each material, a heat source, a temperature gun, and a timer. Set each beaker under the heat .3 meters off the ground, and collect results every minute.…

However, the professor is in disagreement with whatever the reading passage maintains: Firstly, the author believes presence of pollen grains from two type of trees shows the tempreture of the Antratica to be suitable for growing the tree. On the contrary, the professor maintains this kind of grain was not originate from Antractica. these grains originally came from other contries like Andonesia and because the grain is so light, it can move for long distance.…

    Literature Review Temperature The greatest source of heat in water is solar irradiance by direct absorption (Wetzel and Likens, 2000). We might assumed that heat will remain at where it was absorbed and temperature will decrease exponentially with depth, just with the light and may remain constant at the hypolimnion (Lampert and Sommer, 2007). Water has the properties of high heat capacity, thus the larger lake might tends to moderate the local climate and provide the longer growing season for aquatic life (Wetzel and Likens, 2000). Temperature is a measurement of the average kinetic energy of the molecules in an object or system and can be measured with a thermometer or a calorimeter.…
