Solar Radiation, Heat Balance And Temperature

Question
CBSEENGE11010761

Mention distance from the sea as a factors controlling temperature distribution.

Solution
Another factor that influences the temperature is the location of a place with respect to the sea. Compared to land, the sea gets heated slowly and loses heat slowly.
i. Land heats up and cools down quickly. Therefore, the variation in temperature over the sea is less compared to land.
ii. The places situated near the sea come under the moderating influence of the sea and land breezes which moderate the temperature.
