Question

How does the unequal distribution of heat over the planet earth in space and time cause variations in weather and climate?

Answer 1

Weather and climate get affected by the unequal distribution of temperature on the earth. In the areas where there is high temperature, the wind blows from low-temperature areas. Therefore, wind moves upward from equatorial regions and blow towards two poles.

Due to this wind, pressure on both the poles increases. In the winter season, the wind blows from land regions to oceanic regions. Therefore these winds are dry. On the other hand, during summers, the wind blows from the ocean towards land. Therefore, these winds are humid. Unequal distribution of temperature is the main case of blowing of the wind. Rainfall and cyclone also arise due to unequal distribution of temperature. In this way, unequal distribution of temperature affects climate and weather.
