Document Summary
Looking at no2 pollution + two measures of socio economic status (lone parent families + mean household income) Ct = census track the neighborhood where the nap station is located and what the social conditions look like in that neighborhood (based on various socio- economic factors) Question 1: put socioeconomic factor on the x axis and no2 on the y axis. Question 2: pm10 = particulate matter less than 10 micrometers in diameter (the bigger stuff, which the body has a natural defense against). Look for outliers and speculate why this may be. Don"t worry about talking a bout statistical relevance, correlation or anything . Make sure all axes labeled, titled, units present, integrate the graph well into the written work (refer to it in writing) Diffusion of pollutants is not very effective in urban environments where tall buildings prohibit wind from moving in between buildings. Mixing depth shows the mixing of pollutants in the lower layer of the atmosphere.
