Which of the following factors cause the variability of insolation at the surface of the earth?
The rotation of earth on its axis.
The angle of inclination of the sun’s rays.
The transparency of the atmosphere.
The configuration of land in terms of its aspect.
Select the correct answer using the codes given below:
3 and 4 only
2, 3 and 4 only
1, 2 and 3 only
1,2,3 and 4
The factors that cause these variations in insolation are :
(i) the rotation of earth on its axis;
(ii) the angle of inclination of the sun’s rays;
(iii) the length of the day;
(iv) the transparency of the atmosphere;
(v) the configuration of land in terms of its aspect.
(The last two however, have less influence).
The fact that the earth’s axis makes an angle of 66½ with the plane of its orbit round the sun has a greater influence on the amount of insolation received at different latitudes.
