For a GIS project regarding the relationship between daily maximum air temperature and elevation in the State of Rhode Island, please provide the following: 1. Project’s Objective and Science Question Ans: Objective - The objective of this project is to determine the relationship between the daily maximum air temperature and elevation in Rhode Island state. Science Question - What is the relationship between temperature and elevation in Rhode Island counties? 2. Hypothesis Ans: Daily temperature is negatively correlated with elevation. As the elevation increases, the daily temperature decreases. 3. Map of counties’ spatial means of elevation [Table 3.1] - Table of Elevation Mean (highlighted in red) OBJECTID NAME FIPS ZONE_CODE COUNT AREA MEAN 1 Providence 44007 1 1202042 1.08E+09 109.09704 2 Bristol 44001 2 66765 60088500 6.928228 3 Kent 44003 3 490104 4.41E+08 86.884817 4 Newport 44005 4 252288 2.27E+08 29.885707 5 Washington 44009 5 966134 8.7E+08 44.298754
