For the purposes of this workshop, growing season refers to frost-free days.. Dr. Jay Shafer. July . 1, 2015. Lyndon State College. Jason.Shafer@lyndonstate.edu. . 1. Description. The winters of 2013-14 and 2014-15 featured exceptionally cold temperatures in the Northeastern United States - some of the coldest in the last 50 years. This workshop will use these winters as a case study to understand major weather and climatic controls affecting regional weather patterns.  Major contributing factors to the prolonged cold and regional climatic trends will be discussed. The activity will include a simple statistical method to predict seasonal temperatures. Several Vermont climatic data sets will be provided with suggestions as to how one could incorporate them into classroom activities. . Seasons Change.

What is the measure of how warm or cold something ?. Answer: TEMPERATURE. What is the air that surrounds earth?. Answer: ATMOSPHERE. What is any kind of water that falls to earth? (Ex: rain, snow, sleet or hail). iLEAP. Kim Holmes. Zane designed an experiment to find out if gardenia plants grow better in wet soil or in well-drained soil. He planted six small gardenia plants in pots with no drainage holes and six other small gardenia plants in pots with drainage holes. He gave all the plants the same amount of water each day. He observed the plants weekly to see if their leaves stayed green and healthy. He also measured the heights of the plants each week. What are the dependent variables in this experiment.
