I think this is it... I got the kernel density tool to work, I broke my maps up into four different maps to avoid the clutter, and added the frequency distribution tables for the audience to be able to see more information. My final objectives are as follows: to allow the audience to draw conclusions about what it means for the glaciers to be located in the areas of the world that may or may not have a high yearly temperature and/or high concentrations of CO2 emissions. The information on the poster combined with the maps and frequency tables should help pose questions such as - how will the area of glaciers at lower elevations potentially be affected by a high yearly temperature and/or high concentrations of CO2 emissions?

I may have lied in my last blog post. After learning about the different raster analysis tools and discussing with Dr. M I decided that showing a density analysis for both elevation and area (on two separate maps) would be best. That is if it works… I tried to project the data and it froze, so Dr. M had to project my data for me but the file somehow got corrupted when it was transferred back into my file so I spent a solid 2 hours trying to open it, trouble-shoot, and brainstorm with Dr. M and Cate on what I could do to get it to work or what I could do if it doesn’t work. If it does work then I will use the Kernal tool for the analysis of the projected data. I will have four maps, one for temperature, one for carbon emissions, one for density of elevation, and one for density of area. If it does not work then I will include a “what is next section” on my poster and describe the process which I attempted as the next steps for analysis. but so far, Here is my poster with the pro...
