Question

The cooler temperature near the ground level are due to less amount of insolation received du
shorter days and excessive radiation due to longer nights. This is known as ......
A) Latitude
B) Inversion of Temperature
C) Normal Lapse Rate
D) Altitude​

Answer 1

Answer:

Temperature inversion,

Explanation:

Temperature inversion, also called thermal inversion, a reversal of the normal behaviour of temperature in the troposphere (the region of the atmosphere nearest Earth’s surface), in which a layer of cool air at the surface is overlain by a layer of warmer air. (Under normal conditions air temperature usually decreases with height.)

Answer 2

The phenomenon is known as the Inversion of Temperature.

• Inverts in temperature are the product of other weather conditions in an environment.
• When a warm, less dense air mass passes over a dense, cold air mass, they occur more frequently. It induces frost when condensation of warm air occurs at a temperature below freezing point due to its cooling by cold air below.
• Inversion of temperature also influences precipitation, cloud types etc. It induces atmospheric equilibrium that prevents air movements upward and downward.
• Short days and low solar activity define winters. The snow-covered ground is cold and almost all the heat coming in shows its white colour.
