This poster for the Natural Sciences Poster Session at Parkland College features the constellation Draco, which is positioned between the big and little dipper in the Northern sky. It is also circumpolar and contains a galaxy and a nebula in its boundaries. The student identified ten different key stars in the constellation, observed when they rose and set. He then graphed their altitudes and azimuth and identified their life spans.
Effects Of Nitrogen On Soil And Corn Yields, Doug W. Hughes
Effects Of Nitrogen On Soil And Corn Yields, Doug W. Hughes
Natural Sciences Student Research Presentations
This poster for the Natural Sciences Poster Session at Parkland College describes the effects of nitrogen on soil and corn yields. Nitrogen has a major role in establishing and maintaining optimal photosynthesis in corn plants. A comparison shows that crops with more nitrogen applied produces healthier plants. The presentation also includes ways to reduce Nitrogen loss and the impact that Nitrogen rates have on the environment, corn yield, and cost to farmers.
Cancer, Alexander M. Dani
Cancer, Alexander M. Dani
Natural Sciences Student Research Presentations
This poster for the Natural Sciences Poster Session at Parkland College features the constellation Cancer, its ten brightest stars and Messier objects. Cancer (the crab) is a zodiac constellations located between Leo and Gemini. The student identified the ten different key stars and graphed their altitudes and azimuth to calculate their lifespans. He also described the two Messier objects and calculated how many days are in a year according to the rise times of a star in the constellation.
