CONTINENT WEBPAGE MATERIALS |
Deposit
the mateirals in SSH Continent Webpage folders. Here's what should be
delivered:
(1) Figures (maps, graphs, photos, etc.) These should be deposited in your SSH folder. You should have a reference (URL, etc.) for where you obtained the figures -- or cite the NCEP website if you created them there. Figures can be posted into Word Docs or be in JPEG or GIF form -- climographs can be left in EXCEL chart form if you wish. (2) Text of explanation for your figures, climographs, etc. etc. (reference where the info is from, unless you analyzed things and figured it out yourself) (3) A Final Webpage Layout Plan so Dr H knows how to put the figures and text together on the webpage. You can sketch this out by hand if you like and deliver it in person (without putting it in the SSH folder) (4) For grad projects, if you are connecting to a continent webpage, coordinate with your group to deposit the materials. You can put the materials in a separate folder if you wish. |
