The intensity of insolation depends on
A. Altitude
B. Nature of terrain
C. Wind
D. Latitude
Answer: Option D
Solution(By Examveda Team)
The amount of insolation received on the earth’s surface is far less than that is radiated from the sun because of the small size of the earth and its distance from the sun. The amount of insolation received on the earth’s surface is not uniform everywhere. It varies according to the place and time. When the tropical regions receive maximum annual insolation, it gradually decreases towards the poles. Insolation is more in summers and less in winters.Related Questions on Atmosphere
