Outline of proposed changes
Click on the edit button to draft your outline.
 | Now that you have compiled a bibliography, it's time to plan out how you'll improve your assigned article.
In this section, write up a concise outline of how the sources you've identified will add relevant information to your chosen article. Be sure to discuss what content gap your additions tackle and how these additions will improve the article's quality. Consider other changes you'll make to the article, including possible deletions of irrelevant, outdated, or incorrect information, restructuring of the article to improve its readability or any other change you plan on making. This is your chance to really think about how your proposed additions will improve your chosen article and to vet your sources even further. Note: This is not a draft. This is an outline/plan where you can think about how the sources you've identified will fill in a content gap. |
Proposed Outline
Lead/Overview
Definition of microclimate (general scientific term)
A more comprehensive description than the existing, eliminating some of the adjacent topics referenced in the current article. Also the existing image should be replaced for something more recognizably aligned with the concept of microclimates.
Scales of climate
Macroclimate, mesoclimate, microclimate definition
Causes of microclimates
Briefly describe what is meant by causes in scientific terms. (the existing sources and influences on microclimate section will be reworked into this new section)
Direct physical causes of microclimates linked to weather and climate processes, such as:
- wind (or obstruction of wind)
- solar shading
- heat transfer/storage
- reflectivity
- emissivity
- humidity
- evaporation
The contributing factors which shape and modify the processes, many of which can be driven from human created influences:
- topography
- land and water masses
- soil composite makeup
- vegetation structure
- plant species diversity
- human made structures such as buildings and roads
How to measure microclimates
This is an optional but nice to have explanation. The intent is it would build further on the earlier concepts then briefly explain best practices established for measurement of the related variables.
Importance of microclimates
- agriculture and microclimate engineering
- climate change
- reforestation efforts
- understanding energy demands
Background (existing)
examples of microclimates (existing)
cities and regions known for microclimates (existing)
Other uses of microclimate (healthcare)
