Why is insolation 0 cal/cm2/min from October through February at 90º N? Snowfields reflect sunlight during that time. Dust in the atmosphere blocks sunlight during that time. The Sun is continually below the horizon during that time.
What does angle of insolation mean?
The amount of solar radiation received by the Earth or another planet is called insolation. The angle of insolation is the angle at which the sun's rays strike a particular location on Earth. When the north end of the Earth's axis points toward the sun, the Northern Hemisphere experiences summer.
Why is less insolation received at the equator?
The amount of insolation received on the earth's surface is far less than that is radiated from the sun because of the small size of the earth and its distance from the sun.
