Scattering of Sunlight Report Writing Guidelines

Here are some of the main points to think about while you read about scattering of sunlight and to discuss when you write your report:


How does the scattering of sunlight by air molecules differ from the scattering by particulates, water droplets, and ice crystals.  Are we able to see the light scattered by air?  
How does the concentration of particulates in the air affect the color of the sky?  How does scattering of sunlight by particulates affect visibility?  
Is the expression "On a clear day you can see forever" really true?  
Explain why the sun turns yellow, orange, even red when it sets.


Writing Quality
Here are some things you can do to maximize your chances of earning a high writing quality grade:

Explain the material in your own words - your report should be your understanding and explanation of the material.  Avoid generalities, try to include specific details and examples from the reading section.  The separate sections or paragraphs of your paper should blend together into one seamless coherent report.  Your report should be nearly free of misspelled words and grammatical errors.
