Why do continental locations have a larger seasonal temperature range than maritime (ocean) locations?

Question 6 options:

water heats and cools faster than land

trees impact how much sunlight is absorbed by land

mountains block sunlight from some regions

land heats and cools faster than water

Question 7 (1 point)
If the Sun and volcanoes were controlling the climate, the climate would

Question 7 options:

undergo global warming at the same rate as we are seeing currently

undergo global warming at a faster rate than what we are seeing currently

be a little warmer than the climate is today.

be a little cooler than the climate is today.

Explanation:

answer: B

Explanation: 6. Air temperature is one of the most basic climate elements. It is reported in just about every corner of the world and seems fundamental to human comfort (or discomfort). For standard air temperature measurements, instruments are housed in an enclosure, such as the ubiquitous Stevenson screen seen at the right, to shield the sensor from sunlight. Note the thermometer is placed at about head height. If it were located elsewhere, such as at ground level, maximum and minimum temperatures would be different, although the overall average would be about the same.

Solar forcing should warm Earth's atmosphere roughly evenly by altitude, with some variation by wavelength/energy regime. However, the atmosphere is warming at lower altitudes while cooling higher up. This is the expected pattern if greenhouse gases drive temperature, as on Venus.
