Pregunta 1
Pregunta
1. The measurement of surface temperature is made:
Respuesta
-
a) At ground level.
-
b) At approximately 10 metres above ground level.
-
c) At approximately 4 feet above ground level.
-
d) At approximately 4 metres above ground level.
Pregunta 2
Pregunta
2. Cloud cover will reduce diurnal variation of temperature because:
Respuesta
-
a) Incoming solar radiation is reflected back to space and outgoing terrestrial radiation is reflected back to earth.
-
b) Incoming solar radiation is re-radiated back to space and atmospheric heating by convection will stop at the level of the cloud layer.
-
c) The cloud stops the sun rays getting through to the earth and also reduces outgoing conduction.
-
d) Incoming solar radiation is reflected back to space and outgoing terrestrial radiation is re-radiated from the cloud layer back to the surface.

Pregunta
5. Over continents and oceans, the relative temperature conditions are:
Respuesta
