factors‚ such as light intensity‚ humidity‚ wind and temperature that affect the rate of transpiration. Transpiration is a topic 9 in our Biology higher level book. I have read all the information through this chapter and researched some extra information. Based on this information that I had known I decided to take experiment of environmental factor of wind temperature. I am aware of different factors that can affect the rate of transpiration in plants: light‚ humidity‚ wind‚ temperature‚ soil water

FLORIDA John Onyango1 & Angelica Tavarez 1 School of Architecture‚ University of Miami‚ USA‚ j.onyango@miami.edu 2 School of Architecture‚ University of Miami‚ USA‚ g.wang2@miami.edu Abstract It is estimated that temperature and humidity levels in Florida will increase on average by between 4° F and 11° F by 2080 due to effects of climate change. This will results in the characteristics of the indoor environment falling outside the comfort zone and an increased use of air conditioning

conventional cooling‚ there are other methods that are employed for specific applications. Evaporative cooling comes under this category. This type of cooling has a great potential to provide thermal comfort in places where humidity is low. A way to solve this problem of high humidity is to use dehumidifiers for preconditioning the process air. Desiccant evaporative cooling (DEC) system has been proposed as energy saving alternatives to conventional cooling systems. In desiccant cooling‚ the air is first

F) in June‚ July or August‚ and due to the fine air quality and low levels of moisture in the air‚ in general you are able to see very‚ very far. The next paragraph will explain in more detail about this. Low Humidity The air is generally very dry in Greenland. Because of this low humidity the low temperatures do not feel as cold as you might expect. The only problem is that

evaporation cooling of air has also the benefit of adding moisture in the air making it more comfortable for people. Evaporating cooling will not work well in places with high humidity because if there is too much vapor in the air it will be hard to add even more. The difference between dry bulb and wet bulb is used to measure the humidity. Why is the wet bulb temperature always lower than the dry bulb temperature? The dry bulb is a regular thermometer. The whet bulb is a thermometer with the bulb wrapped

The main goal is to build a miniature greenhouse which is equipped with an automatic monitoring system. This monitoring system will constantly monitor the conditions in the greenhouse to ensure that it remains at preset temperature‚ light and humidity conditions. If these conditions differ from the preset levels‚ the monitoring system will automatically turn on certain devices to return the greenhouse to the required conditions. Benefits: Automatically control the growing environment within

Some Ways That The Environment Affects Human Health? Air Pollution Air pollution is one obvious environmental health threat in OECD countries‚ contributing to a number of illnesses‚ such as asthma and in some cases leading to premature death. Of particular concern is the fact that children are more vulnerable to air pollution than adults‚ and increased rates of infant mortality have been recorded in highly polluted areas. Concerns about the impact of air pollution on health and the economy

decision for the pet and your family. Each reptile has certain requirements for the cage that they live in. Both come from places that have high humidity. The Iguana is from South Central America‚ and the Thai Water Dragon is from Southeast Asia. Though they both need humidity the Thai Water Dragon does not need as much. Each reptile should have a humidity barometer and a temperature thermometer in the cage to regulate the surroundings. The Iguanas temperature during the day should be around 85-95

Mushrooms As you walk through a forest or even your backyard you may take a glance towards the ground and see a mushroom. Have you ever wondered what may be causing it to grow? What it is made of etc.? Different mushrooms are made of different things‚ and different forms of growth allow their quickness abilities in growth. So what is a mushroom? A mushroom is the fruit of the mushroom plant‚ like the apple of an apple tree. The body of the mushroom in called mycelium and its individual

thunderstorms or ’norwesters’. b) Rainy or Monsoon season (June-October). This is the period of highest rainfall‚ humidity and cloudiness. Nearly 80 % of the annual rainfall occurs during this season‚ and in June‚ the temperature drops due to the cooling effect of the rains. (c) Cool (winter) and dry season (November-February). This season is characterized by low temperature‚ low humidity and high solar radiation. January is normally the coldest month when minimum temperature of 5° C may be recorded
