A comparative analysis of the extent of light pollution in the Cities of Mandaluyong and Pasig
Abstract
To determine the extent of light pollution in the cities of Mandaluyong and Pasig the researcher utilized the population growth data from the Philippines Statistics Agency, while the number of buildings that have been built in the two cities is taken from www.citypopulation. The radiance values which are significant in understanding light pollution in the two cities are derived from lightpollutionmap.com. Data from the VIIRS only covered the period of 2013 to 2018. One-way ANOVA (Analysis of Variance) and multiple correlations are used in this study to find out the correlations and relationships of all variables which are applied in this study. The statistical tests were run in SPSS version 25. The study reveals that areas with ... Read More read more link button
