For the main post, each question must be answered in paragraph format using college level writing, complete sentences, and appropriate grammar, spelling, and punctuation.
The questions you need to answer based on the article reading are:
1)How did John Muir and Josiah Whitney differ on their theories of how Yosemite Valley formed?
2)In 1872, what was John Muir’s data collection method for testing if glaciers are alive (moving)?
3)What is the data on the diminishing glaciers of the American West? The world? What does this melting coincide with?
4)Since record keeping began, what does the temperature record show for California and how does it affect the show pack in the Sierras?
You are discussing the article by answering each question with a college level paragraph analysis (a paragraph = no less than 5 sentences). Having a one or two sentence response to a question will not get you full points. Also make sure to answer all aspects of each question.
