Lab 7: Moon Phases was designed to measure the relative position of the Sun and Moon over the course of one phase cycle (i.e. one month, 29.5 days) The idea for Lab 7: Moon Phases was to examine how the illumination of the moon by the Sun produces the different phase cycles we see as the Moon rotates around Earth and as the Earth rotates around the Sun. The observations of the Moon were taken on four different days in the month of February to March capturing four different Moon Phases.
Introduction For two days, on the 14th and 15th of April, a field excursion to Hastings Point, New South Wales was conducted. At Hastings Point, topography, abiotic factors and organism distribution were measured and recorded, with the aim of drawing links between the abiotic factors of two ecosystems (rocky shore and sand dunes), the organisms which live in them, and the adaptations they have developed to cope with these conditions. Within these two ecosystems, multiple zones were identified and recorded, and this report also aims to identify the factors and organisms associated with each zone. Lastly, using data and observations from the past, predictions for the future of the rock pool ecosystem were made.
On average the sunshine coast has approximately 7 hours of sunshine a day, the seasonal variations are very minimal. The temperatures are generally warm year round with summer temperatures averaging between 17 – 28 °C, and autumn temperatures falling between 13 - 25 °C. However the coastal location benefits from cooling sea breezes on warmer days. The during the winter season the temperature ranges between 7 - 22 °C. Spring is similarly mild with temperatures reaching between 13 - 25 °C.
Your understanding of what DV means Distinctively visual is utilised by composers to bring their unique ideas to life ultimately shaping the responder’s perspective and understanding. The module allows the responders to empathise with the composer through exploring the composer’s experience and perception of the world. How composers have used techniques to create the DV Distinctively visual created by Henry Lawson in ‘In a dry season’ and ‘the drover’s wife’, explores his experience and perspective of the Australian outback. In a dry season, Henry uses imagery, irony and imperative voice and in the drover’s wife, he uses tone, metaphor and alliteration. His effective use of literary techniques create a provocative images of the remoteness and idleness of the Australian outback and the bushmen and women’s hardships and challenges of surviving the harsh condition.
DeekshithKumar Thadishetti Professor mankerian LS 690 July 31 2015 Climate change is one of the global issue that requires multiperspective approach. One of the key cause of climate change is air pollution. Air pollution occurs as a result of release of greenhouse gases to the atmosphere. There are two key sources of air pollution that should be targeted if the air pollution is to be reduced. The first source is the industrial stationay sources, which include electric power facilities.
Winter brings more accidents, but even though there are more accidents that makes people take more caution. They don't want to be in an accident due to the snow and ice so they take precautions. Summer temperatures can cause your car to overheat because of the high temperatures. Which means you could be caught being broken down more often. With the warm weather you can take more road trips and vacations.
In Nunavut there is prevailing and widespread belief among hunters that climate changes are already well under way. Here, they now see an alarming melting of sea ice earlier in the spring and a later freeze –up in the fall, all due to global warming. There is now also the appearance of flora and fauna, never before seen in the region. There is widespread general agreement among the population that there are climate changes occurring here now and these changes are becoming a source of growing local concern. Nunavut’s capital Iqaluit, population about 4300, the old Frobisher Bay, is now the largest town in Canada’s entire arctic.
Throughout the novel of The Crucible, written by Arthur Miller, there are several climatic moments where it grabs the reader’s attention and causes a turning point in the storyline. A climax is when the story experiences a rising action and turns into a falling action. The characters experience a mixture of emotions and cause the audience to feel similar as the characters. John Proctor’s moment in court where he confesses for being a lecher to help provide evidence that Abigail is a “whore” is an example of climatic moment.
In the story, “The Metamorphosis” by Franz Kafka, the style of the novel is depressing, and hopeless, these styles enhances the nightmarish quality by using dark vocabulary, for example, “Gregor then turned to look out the window at the dull weather... Gregor said to himself, caught in some nonsensical hope… every one of them, louts, was there not one of them who was faithful and devoted who would go so mad with pangs…”. This choice of words put together give off the sensation of deep sadness and hopelessness. The “dull weather” indicates a dreary and gloomy mood at the beginning, setting the mood. To give the scene a more nightmarish look, Gregor says, "How about if I sleep a little bit longer and forget all this nonsense".
Under the assessment and evaluation of current environment situation, the federal government have developed the Pan-Canadian Framework on Clean Growth and Climate Change and other collective actions to address climate change. Under the federal consideration of climate change, there exists four pillars including pricing carbon pollution, taking action in each sector of the economy, adapting to climate change and supporting clean technologies, innovation and job creation. As carbon pollution is the majority factor influencing climate in earth, much attention has been put on this area. In order to control the carbon pollution to climate, government will collaborate with the territories and indigenous people to assess the practice of carbon
Desire is a consuming force that causes the body to act without consulting the mind. Anne Carson’s translation of Sappho’s fragments in, If Not Winter, creates experiences in which, eros produces a gap between the subject and the desired object. With the use of vivid imagery and overt symbolism within fragment 105A, Sappho allows her readers to experience the uncontrollable forces of desire and attraction which govern a person who is in love; even if such feelings are irrational. This ultimately creates a tangible distance between the subject and the object she desires. In this paper, I will argue that longing after an unattainable person becomes so consuming that it eventually produces madness within the desiring individual.

Lab 1: Climate Change and the Scientific Method This lab’s topic is about applying the scientific method and pollen grains in past environments. The first step in the scientific method is to ask a question. For this lab, the question was, “Can pollen grains tell past environments climate?” The next step is to conduct research.
Over the past 65+ years, tobacco has been a major health concern towards humans. Some say these concerns were always something the creators were more or less aware of, however, their financial gain was great enough for them to continue to produce such a product knowing it will be harmful to people. As Jonathan Turley states, “ To some, tobacco is a symbol of corporate greed and immorality in the marketing of an addictive and deadly product. To others, it symbolizes individual choice and freedom in a life increasingly subject to governmental control.” This is a free country, but at what point is it right for the government to step in and take charge of something that is factually killing millions of humans annually?
