Question

(1)What are the elements of weather and climate ?

(2) Distinguish between weather and climate ?

Answer 1

There are many elements that make up both the weather and the climate of a geographical location. The most significant of these elements aretemperature, atmospheric pressure, wind, solar irradiance, humidity, precipitation, and topography.


Weather reflects short-term conditions of the atmosphere while climate is the average daily weather for an extended period of time at a certain location. ... And climate change is certainly a “hot” topic in the news. There is, however, still a lot of confusion over the difference between the two.
