demand issues” (Sailors‚ 2001). 2. If the temperature is dropping and the dew point is holding steady‚ what is your forecast for the relative humidity? Explain your answer. If the temperature drops and the dew point holds steady the relative humidity will go up. When air is cooled down it can’t hold much water‚ which saturates the air increase the relative humidity. 3. In what ways are severe thunderstorms different from ordinary cell thunderstorms? What are some of the meteorological or atmospheric

Lab 4: Plant Transpiration Project By Shelby Hyde Lab 030 Date Due: March 12‚ 2013 The Effect of Wind on the Rate of Transpiration Introduction: Transpiration is the process through which water is evaporated from plants. This serves many purposes‚ including thermoregulation and the diffusion of CO2‚ but most importantly creates a water potential difference which causes the mass flow of water and nutrients from the roots to the leaves of the plant. Transpiration is accomplished through structures

Climates and Oceans- 1. With coastal climates‚ the locations are on the windward side‚ meaning the weather patterns move from the ocean to land‚ giving them mild summers and cool winters. This means that there isn’t a very large temperature range for coastal climates. Inland climates are more of the land heating and cooling‚ because they heat to high temperatures in the day and then cool a great amount at night. Also‚ the weather patterns are moving from land to water‚ creating warmer summers and

weather is dry; harvesting after a rainfall‚ or when the humidity is high increases susceptibility to post-harvest disease. At harvest‚ bulbs must be firm‚ with mature necks and scales‚ and must be a good size. Defective onions (i.e. sprouted‚ insect damaged‚ sunscalded‚ green‚ bruised) should be discarded.For optimum storage quality‚ onions must be cured soon after harvest by placing them in a drying room at 20-30°C and 70% relative humidity for 12 to 24 h. Curing decreases the incidence of neck

(4 pts) Of the various factors that have the ability to affect transpiration rates we studied three specifically‚ heat‚ humidity‚ and closure of stomata. The humidity test that we ran in lab demonstrated that during periods of higher humidity the plant transpired less water than during the control‚ this was due to higher

To allow for better monitoring of the climate condition in the greenhouse‚ the sensor station is equipped with several sensor elements such as CO2‚ Temperature‚ humidity‚ light‚ soil moisture and soil temperature. The communication between the sensor station and the coordinator station is achieved via ZigBee wireless modules and the communication between coordinator station and the central station is achieved via

Heat Waves What is heat wave? A heat wave is a prolonged period of excessively hot weather‚ which may be accompanied by high humidity. While definitions vary‚ a heat wave is measured relative to the usual weather in the area and relative to normal temperatures for the season. Temperatures that people from a hotter climate consider normal can be termed a heat wave in a cooler area if they are outside the normal climate pattern for that area. What are the symptoms of heat strokes and sunstroke
