प्रश्न
Study the temperature and rainfall graphs of Station X and Y and answer the questions that follow:
- Which station has a coastal location? Why?
- What is the source of rainfall in Station X?
- Why does Station Y receive scanty rainfall?
थोडक्यात उत्तर
उत्तर
- It's conceivable that Station X is near a coast. Based on the temperature graph, which indicates decreased annual temperature variance and the moderating influence of the ocean, this conclusion has been drawn. Compared to inland locations, which normally have more drastic temperature swings, coastal places often have a more mild climate with fewer temperature differences between seasons.
- The south-west monsoon winds from the Arabian Sea branch are the source of the rainfall in Station X.
- Little rain falls at Station Y because the monsoon winds are worn out and dry by the time they arrive there.
