#3 Reading the Literature Review

The literature review that I have picked out provided me of a clear idea of what I really want to talk about for my research prospectus. My literature review mentioned a lot about the concerns of cryosphere but what I really want to talk about is the implications of sea level changes if the ice from Greenland and Antarctica melts. This literature review proves to be very informative in explaining the implications of sea level rising if melting from a specific region of Antarctica, known as West Antarctica Ice Sheet or WAIS for short.

This literature review was very similar to the article that I have read for my anatomy of a scholarly journal. In fact, this literature review is a combination of research and clear evidences of what will happen if the sea level rises. It even mention the danger of Washington D.C. if this occurs. The area of Washington D.C. would be underwater as well as the majority of the eastern board of United States as well.

I will be honest, I was a finance major so writing research papers and reviewing articles and researching for sources were not the norm. However, I have written a business proposal about creating a new and healthier food choice for Wendy’s Franchise. This involved in researching for problems with obesity in America and why this new and healthy food choice will benefit both the business and the consumers. So this research prospectus will be similar to business proposal but with other differences. It involves more sources, more research and even more in depth conceptual thinking when writing something that pertains to any field of science.
