Temperature and Precipitation Levels of Achievement: Exemplary 20 (20%) points Meets Proficient and provides ample relevant detail to demonstrate deep understanding of how climate elements tie to polar front theory. Proficient 17 (17%) points Accurately identifies and calculates annual temperature and precipitation data and ties climate elements to polar front theory. Needs Improvement 11 (11%) points Identifies and calculates annual temperature and precipitation data and ties climate elements to polar front theory, but there are inaccuracies. Not Evident 0 (0%) points Does not identify and calculate annual temperature and precipitation data or tie climate elements to polar front theory. Storms Levels of Achievement: Exemplary 20 (20%) points Meets Proficient and provides ample relevant detail to determine the type, magnitude, seasonality, and frequency of storms in the region. Proficient 17 (17%) points Correctly considers polar front theory in determining the type, magnitude, seasonality, and frequency of storms in the region. Needs Improvement 11 (11%) points Considers polar front theory in determining the type, magnitude, seasonality, and frequency of storms in the region, but there are inaccuracies. Not Evident 0 (0%) points Does not consider polar front theory in determining the type, magnitude, seasonality, and frequency of storms in the region. storical Weather Data Recurrence Intervals Levels of Achievement: Exemplary 20 (20%) points Meets Proficient and provides ample relevant detail to demonstrate deep understanding of historical data and justifies why calculation is correct. Proficient 17 (17%) points Accurately extracts
data present in the historical records and calculates recurrence intervals for significant weather events. Needs Improvement 11 (11%) points Extracts data present in the historical records and calculates recurrence intervals for significant weather events, but there are inaccuracies. Not Evident 0 (0%) points Does not extract data present in the historical records or calculate recurrence intervals for significant weather events. Proposed Development Levels of Achievement: Exemplary 30 (30%) points Meets Proficient and provides ample relevant detail to thoroughly explain how all features impact potential proposed development. Proficient 25.5 (25.5%) points Accurately considers other features such as the interactions between climate factors, slope, landforms, soils, and stream factors relative to the proposed development. Needs Improvement 16.5 (16.5%) points Considers other features such as the interactions between climate factors, slope, landforms, soils, and stream factors relative to the proposed development, but there are inaccuracies. Not Evident 0 (0%) points Does not consider other features such as the interactions between climate factors, slope, landforms, soils, and stream factors relative to the proposed development. Articulation of Response Levels of Achievement: Exemplary 10 (10%) points Submission is free of errors related to citations, grammar, spelling, syntax, and organization and is presented in a professional and easy to read format. Proficient 8.5 (8.5%) points Submission has no major errors related to citations, grammar, spelling, syntax, or organization. Needs Improvement 5.5 (5.5%) points Submission has major errors related to citations, grammar, spelling, syntax, or organization that negatively impact readability and articulation of main ideas. Not Evident 0 (0%) points Submission has critical errors related to citations, grammar, spelling, syntax, or organization that prevent understanding of ideas. Name:PHY 103 Milestone Three Rubric
