Analysis of Energy Sources Lab
In this lab, you will examine renewable and nonrenewable energy resources for supplying electricity. The goal is to consider the high demand for energy and the impact of various energy sources on human health and the environment. Which energy sources are the best options?
For this assignment, you will use the Unit 4 Lab: Analysis of Energy Sources to complete the Unit 4 Lab Report.
First, view the Unit 4 Lab: Analysis of Energy Sources.
Then, open this template.
Using the Lab Report template, you will complete the information below.
Fill in the data table using the Electrical Power Plant comparison.
Write a Lab Report using the scientific method. Your report will include all of the following:
Purpose: In 2–3 sentences, state the purpose of the Analysis of Energy Sources Lab.
Introduction: In a detailed paragraph, summarize what is currently known about renewable and nonrenewable energy sources. Use the background information provided in the Unit 4 Lab: Analysis of Energy Sources.
Hypothesis / predicted outcome: In 1 sentence, state what you expect the results of the lab procedure will be.
Methods: In a detailed paragraph, summarize the steps you performed to collect the data in this lab exercise. The goal of the Methods section is to include enough information that others can duplicate your process and obtain the same results
Results / outcome: In a detailed paragraph, summarize your data.
Discussion / analysis: In a detailed paragraph, discuss whether you obtained the expected results and what you learned from the lab.
Submit your completed assignment in one of the following ways:
Upload your completed Lab Report.
Upload an image with your completed Lab Report.
Type in your responses to the Lab Report in the IP Launch Submission area.

In Part 1 of this assignment, you will begin by producing a line graph that depicts the change in temperature by altitude above Earth’s surface. In the table to the right, you will find temperatures for various altitudes above Earth’s surface. Plot the temperatures on the graph page located on the Assignment 2 Word Document.
Once you have plotted your points, connect them with a line. Then, mark the following labels on your chart:
Troposphere, Mesopause, Thermosphere, Stratopause, Stratosphere, Tropopause, Ozone Layer, Mesopause
Finally, answer the Part 1 questions based on your analysis of the data and the assigned course readings.
Unit 2 Assignment Part 1
Note: In the course reading, the altitudes are listed in miles above Earth’s surface. You will need to convert miles to kilometers to complete labeling of the graph on your Assignment 2 Word Document. 1 mile = 1.60934 kilometers.
Part 2
In Part 2 of this assignment, you will access two video clips shown below. One will be about hurricane formation, and the other will be about the deadliest hurricanes in U.S. history. After going through the videos, answer the associated questions on your Unit 2 Assignment Word Document.
In Part 3 of this assignment, you will begin by producing a series of climographs. Then, you will extrapolate information from the data that is displayed.
A climograph is a graph that shows the annual cycle of temperature and precipitation averages for a geographic region. The x-axis of your graphs will display the months of the year. There will be two opposing y-axis values, for precipitation (in inches) and temperature (in °F).
The image to the left is an example of a climograph in Kolkata, India.

Remember that climate data is based on the average values of a geographic region over long periods of time. A “climate normal” is the average over a period of at least 30 years within a region. You will be using climate data over a 30-year period in three locations to produce your climographs.
The technological tool you will be using today is Google Sheets. In order to use Google Sheets, it may be necessary to create a Google Account. This can be done with either a personal account or with your Broward College school account.
Given are three compiled datasets. These datasets show climate “normals” within specific regions. A climate normal is a three-decade average of climatological variables, including temperature and precipitation. It is displayed on a monthly basis. So, where it says Month 01, the Mean column shows the average temperature for all Januarys over a 30 year period. Our data will consist of climate normals from 1981-2010.
Using the available sets of data, produce three climographs with Google Sheets. Use the Mean column only from each dataset. Follow the video tutorial for creating a climograph on Google Sheets. Then, take screenshots of each of your climographs and insert them into your Microsoft Word document. Finally, complete the associated analysis questions on your Microsoft Word document.
Below are links to the videos provided and all what’s needed are in attachment file.

write a response proposal for my research paper. project description: This project is refining its focus on marine pollution through a robust Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) using a comparative framework. Instead of broadly addressing all types of pollutants, we will concentrate on specific regions and compare Southeast Asia’s oceans with the Pacific’s.
This approach allows for a more targeted analysis of pollutants, focusing on plastics and oil spills. By narrowing the scope, the study aims to unravel the nuanced dynamics of how these pollutants affect marine ecosystems within the chosen regions. This shift towards a comparative analysis seeks to uncover variations in pollution sources, levels, and environmental impacts. This refined focus aligns with the principles of Environmental Impact Assessment, emphasizing a thorough understanding of the sources and types of pollution. Through this, we aim to contribute meaningfully to developing effective and targeted solutions for mitigating marine pollution.

You are an environmental consultant hired by a gas company to conduct an environmental site assessment of a shale gas
well. You will investigate the environmental context in which the well is situated, analyze the risk factors inherent in the
site, propose BMPs that could prevent environmental problems, and propose a plan for reclamation with metrics for
success. Your audience is the gas company and state regulatory agency that will consider your recommendations.
I. Acquire data.
We have selected well site named “To be provided Monday”. Our purpose is not to condemn a particular well or gas
company, but rather to use this well pad as a real-world example for your training.
Your report should include maps that allow you to analyze roughly a 1-mile radius around your well pad. This radius was
selected because it enables you to see the broader impacts of the well pad development.
The MINIMUM dataset to include in your report is:
A time series images: Google Earth or PA Oil and Gas Mapping
A soils map: Web Soil Survey – Home (usda.gov)
Water resources map: Wetlands Mapper (fws.gov)
A PA Natural Diversity Inventory (PNDI) report: Home | PA Conservation Explorer
A USGS topo map of the site: PA Oil and Gas Mapping
A summary of violations and inspection reports for the site: PA Shale Viewer
The waste disposal site: PA Oil and Gas Mapping
II. Report requirements.
Your report will include the following sections, but I am not prescribing the length of each section. The final report
should be 5 to7 pages single spaced excluding figures, tables, and citations. Excellent papers are often 5 pages long, and
it is rarely necessary to extend beyond 6 pages. You can use the outline here as an outline for your report, but if you
prefer a different organization, ensure your new outline is clear with all headings and subheadings.
