Hypothesis Concrete areas are hotter than non-
concrete area.
Site A: Top Floor of Multistorey Carpark
Site B: Garden outside printing centre
Site C: Open space between canteen and Block C
Site D: Terraces
Site E: Field
Site F: Running Track
Site G: Fountain area outside General Office

The average temperature of concrete area is not higher than that of non-concrete area.
Conclusion Our hypothesis is rejected. The rejection might be due to multiple
errors caused during the experiment, such as not measuring the temperature as the same point at each location during the two measurements.
We believe that the result will probably be more reliable if the temperature is taken at the same time.
