Graphs are a scientist's canvas. Two graphs are shown above that depict relationships that are
most important to us in the Fosdick Mtns: geology and tea.
The left hand graph demonstrates an inverse exponential relationship
between the quantity of tea consumed by five persons and weather
adjacent to Bird Bluff in the Fosdick Mountains, expressed by the following
equation: C = (L+EG)/2.6 x e^(p-t+(2xws)) where C = tea consunption, L =
herbal tea quantity, EG = Posh tea quantity, p = barometric pressure in
inches of Hg, t = dew point temperature in degree kelvin, and ws = wind
shear in m/s. The line is a significant statistical fit of the
mathematical model with an r-squared value of 0.98 and Monte Carlo
analysis of the residuals indicates a gaussian distribution over >99.99%
of the data points.
The graph on the right is a summary of the data collected from the rock
face shown in 'The Pursuit of Knowledge' post and shows the amount of
dark rock to light rock. It is also exponential.
Inferences from these models can be drawn as follows: there is more dark
rock than light rock and the impending storm forecast for tomorrow will
result in an increase in tea consumption...
