Climate Datasets: [Cause] Project; Temps. csy and [Effect] Project; Cherries. csy Hypothesis: Did minimum temperatures in Michigan during a recent period from 2010-2015 have an impact on the production of tart cherries? The connection between temperatures and cherry production is because of many different influences. Plant processes, including photosynthesis, transpiration, respiration, germination, and flowering are influenced by temperatures. As temperature increases, photosynthesis, transpiration, and respiration increase. When combined with daylength, temperature also affects the change from yegetatiye to reproductiye growth. The goal is to see if we can determine the effects of temperatures on the tart cherries. While milder temperatures can result in longer growing seasons, crops that break dormancy too early are at risk for freeze and frost damage. Tart cherries are yulnerable to these spring freeze eyents. Comparing minimum temperatures and anomalies to the production of tart cherries will be explored. B) Determine the distribution of your chosen datasets Do the following for both data sets: Report the mean, median, standard deviation, and interquartile range Create a histogram of the data and report the mode Calculate the skew and kurtosis and make a qualitative assessment of whether your data is normally distributed Conduct a chi-squared test of the distribution against a Gaussian distribution to statistically determine if it is normally distributed
