Initially, I had an idea of focusing on factors that could potentially contribute to the rise of local tick populations in California and explore new approaches to address these potential issues. In this hypothetical scenario, the project was conceptual, and the goal was to compare tick populations with temperature variations and gather tick samples from specific areas. The envisioned research would have drawn upon previous data from case studies and find the significance of temperature and the presence of infected ticks in the MARC project as a basis for reaching theoretical conclusions. Subsequently, the plan was to utilize graphs to illustrate these theoretical findings and to share them within the scientific community.  However, my project has since changed.
