The findings on methylosmoline will pose a risk to Pipit and other wildlife in the waterways. There seems to be an increase reading of this measure and it could affect the water they consume and cause skin disease with constant contact. Beside that, it can also harm the neighbouring flora and fauna that uses the same river source which in turn could harm the Pipits as they eat the fruits produced by these trees.

However, there is no apparent direct correlation between the various measures. This lack of correlation is due to the observations we had in Part 2 as there is an uneven distribution of water sensors over the four river sources and there is an inconsistent number of readings of the waterway data we had.

I suggest that we should regularly check and maintain the sensors in those locations, as some missing data could be caused by impairment of the hardware. Also, the number of times a reading is performed need to be consistent in the same river source, so that we can compare the data across the locations in that same area.This way one could understand the impact of 1 contaminated location extending to other locations down the rivers.
