Global Warning: UVB Rays Friend or Foe?
Division:Engineering & Computing Sciences / None
Category:Junior
Region:Chinook Country
City:Calgary, AB
School:Red Deer Lake School
Abstract:This project set out to determine if the UVB rays reaching the earth’s surface as a result of global warming would have an effect on crop production. Oats and canola were grown in two separate trials one with decreased UV rays and one with increased UV rays. This project showed that increased UV radiation does have an impact on plant productivity by negatively impacting germination.
