    radiation emitted from the Earth readily escapes to space‚ chilling the nighttime desert air. The high energy input during the day and large loss at night results in an extremely large daily temperature range also known as the diurnal range. Precipitation in the tropical desert is very irregular and unreliable. Low latitude deserts average less than 25 in a year. An entire year’s worth of rain may fall in one downpour. The continental location of many tropical deserts places them far from a source

    Experiment 3: Stoichiometry of a Precipitation Reaction Abstract: In this experiment‚ the objective is to use Stoichiometry to predict the amount of product produced in a precipitation reaction. We received working knowledge of how to accurately measure reactants and products of the reaction. We then are able to use the data that we recorded to make assessments of the actual yield opposed to the theoretical yield. When we calculated the percent yield we are able

    Writing Assignment #3—Drought The National Drought Mitigation Center conceptually defines drought as “a protracted period of deficient precipitation resulting in extensive damage to crops‚ resulting in loss of yield”. Three indicators of drought include below normal soil moisture‚ reduced stream flow‚ and‚ most obviously‚ lack of precipitation. These indicators can be kept track of in order to help mitigate the effects of drought. The U.S. Drought monitor makes maps of the United States
