FUNDAMENTAL OF PHYSICAL GEOGRAPHY
SOLAR RADIATION, HEAT BALANCE AND TEMPERATURE

1. How do winds affect the temperature of a place? 
2. How is temperature affected by clouds? 
3. What is Air Drainage?      
4. What are the Isotherms? Write their general characteristics?    
5. Define the terms insolation, convection and advection.
6. What is Albedo?
7. What is Terrestrial Radiation? 
8. What are Equinoxes? 
9.  Explain how altitude, latitude, ocean current and distance from the sea affect   temperature of a place?    
10. Write a short note on Heat Budget? 
11. What is the effect of the tilt in the axis of earth on insolation?            
12. Why is temperature reduced to sea level before isothermal map are drawn? 
13. Define Inversion of Temperature. Why is inversion of temperature important?
