Relative humidity

include “temperature, humidity, and pH, availability of light, water and nutrients” (Huxely, 2005). Therefore, the ability of an organism to adapt or “the process of change by which an organism or species become better suited to its environment” (Dictionary.com, 2015) is vital. Some of the adaptations exhibited by water plants may include an “extensive root system” where it enables the roots to take up ground water or the leaves may be “coated with fine hairs, increasing the humidity around the…

1998; Liu and Zhang 2013). According to the Penman-Monteith method, most of the meteorological parameters are affecting by ETref including air temperature, wind speed, relative humidity and solar radiation. These four meteorological parameters contribute to the change in ETref which are elaborately assessed in this study. In addition, various attribution analysis techniques have been applied to determine the contribution of…

change to bushfires is that climate change triggers the Forest Fire Danger Index(FFDI)(1.book; Luke and Arthur 1978). In 1967 Alan MacArthur , Climatologist developed the FFDI which is varies from 1 to 100 and it is subtle to wind speed, relative humidity and temperature changes(2.book :Dowdy et al. 2009). It is a fact that increase of temperature and dryness contribute to the upward trend of FFDI. On the basis of State of climate – 2016, by the CISRO and Bureau of Meteorology, daily FFDI…

reading of the carbon monoxide levels that the colony is exposed to on a day to day basis. In the meantime, a Hobo Meter will be activated amidst the other readings taking place. This will allow for background information on the temperature and relative humidity. For this purpose, knowing the temperature will deepen understanding of results from the ammonia and carbon monoxide color detector tubes. The DustTrak meter will…

1.0 Introduction It is hot and humid in Malaysia throughout the year and this conditions call into question whether our normal ways of dealing with our climate (using primarily insulation and air conditioning for cooling) is the only economical and ecological approach to these climate extremes. The selection of materials for a retreat house considers sustainability as its first factor. This is attained by looking into the environmental aspects of the location of the building. This…

unusual in the fact that they have eyelids, which is almost unheard of in geckos. They also boast a rather hefty lifespan, with the ability to live for 20-30 years with proper care. The oldest recorded leopard gecko lived to be 31 years old. A close relative of the ‘leo’ is the African fat tailed gecko. These geckos generally only survive to 20 years old. African fat tails can vocalise by clicking their tongue against the roof of their mouths, making a variety of noises. To the untrained eye- it…

Otzi is known as the iceman, the Simulaun Man, and the man from Hauslabjoch. Otzi is a 5,300-year-old corpse that turned up on the mountain border between Austria and Italy in 1991. First of all, Otzi the iceman has 19 genetics relatives living in Austria is the latest discoveries surrounding the famed ice mummy Otzi’s 5,300 years old corpse turned up Austria and Italy in 1991. Here is a rundown of the latest on the world’s oldest Alpine remarkable things we’ve learn about Otzi. Furthermore,…

Type of climate and common weather events The relative humidity in Big Bend National Park is generally low. The rainy season runs from mid-June to October, with locally heavy storms and some flooding. Although, the water can be removed quickly and the rainy season can be a pleasant time to visit the desert. Fall and spring are generally warm and pleasant. Summers are the hottest time, however, temperatures vary widely across the desert floor and the Chisos Mountains; May and June are the…

CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION 1.1 RESEARCH BACKGROUND The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the US Consumer Product (1995) (as cited in Preethi, 2005) sated that people spend approximately 90 percents of their time being indoors. Therefore, for many, due to more exposure of indoor air pollution than outdoor air pollution the risk to health may be greater. The building occupants may be exposed to the variety of contaminants whether in the form of gases and particles derived from office…

The general term “microbes,” is used to describe any organism that cannot be seen by the human eye. While individual microbes cannot be seen, these microorganisms usually form colonies in which their species can be observed and categorized. In this experiment, the effect of environmental selection on biodiversity are measured and compared in two locations. The inside of an air vent and the top of a cabinet were passed over with cotton swabs, which were then used to streak agar plates to…
