Design a pedagogic document

APEC Tsukuba Conference 201410

Instituitional integration: optional theme in extra curriculum

Content: to identify the level of forest fire in some provinces according to date provided by meteorological stations

Mathematic knowledge: • Using the statistics data of temperature, air humidity

and rainfall at 13 hours daily to determine the meteorological Nesterop index P from November 2002 to date of the meteorological stations.

• Using daily statistics on P to classify P for each month at indicated provinces

• Application of spatial interpolation methods for determining the date of the P grade 4 and 5 for each month in each 1km2 equidistant points around the territory.

• Document
