UV Dosage Levels in Summer: Increased Risk of Ozone Loss from Convectively Injected Water Vapor

Summarize what have learned from your readings and submit your work to the Canvas assignment page. There is no specific style requirement on your writing but it must satisfy the “SPECIFIC CRITERIA ON WRITTEN AND ANALYSIS.”
Scientific writing style:
Scientific writing is concise and includes only pertinent details that are needed to convey an idea. The phrase “less is more” applies nicely here. While the scope of scientific writing styles has expanded in the past decade, we will narrow it for this class to include the following elements.
2 Tense:
For most applications, the past tense is correct. When you state the work that was done, this is reported in the past tense. This can also be applied to the results, discussion, and conclusion sections when data were analyzed and conclusions were made. When you talk about the future work to be done, then use the future tense.
Abbreviations:
All abbreviations must be defined at their first use, for example, “Thin-layer chromatography (TLC) was used to monitor the reaction.”
Audience:
For this project, you should be writing for readers fluent in General Chemistry, but not Organic Chemistry, etc. Even though the assignments are graded by TAs who are graduate students, they are not your intended audience.
Gender-Neutral:
When referring to an unspecified person, use “they” or “theirs” instead of “he or she”. Other gender-neutrals should also be adopted, such as “people” instead of “mankind”.
Limit your discussion to the science:
It may be tempting to suggest policy, action, or behavioral changes. Please recognize that science can correlate the actions and consequences of those actions, but science cannot dictate policy or other value-judgments. Please limit your discussion to science without offering policy recommendations.
Final Notes:
While scientific writing is distinct from creative writing, it still tells a story and you need to make sure that the structure of your writing reflects this. The frame of your document needs clear goals and the data presented must always support or give information about the goals.
3 Walk the audience through how the problem was defined, how it was targeted, and what was achieved. Anything extraneous should be left out. More detailed information on best practices in scientific writing is included in The ASC Style Guide.
The length of the Lab write-up needs to be 3 pages (excludes citation) with double spaced text, 1" margins, and reasonable font sizes (Arial 10-12 pt, Times New Roman 11-12pt, Calibri 11-12pt, Helvetica 10-12pt, etc.). It's good if you can do a thorough job in less than three pages. Sometimes, writing concisely and compactly is much harder than being a bit more verbose.
