Question

What brings about warm temperatures over land surface?
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Solar heating of the Earth's surface is uneven because land heats faster than water, and this causes air to warm, expand and rise over land while it cools and sinks over the cooler water surfaces.

Answer 2

Solar heating of the Earth's surface is uneven because land heats faster than water, and this causes air to warm, expand and rise over land while it cools and sinks over the cooler water surfaces. Wind is the result of pressure changes in the atmosphere .It is the main factor affecting the planet's average temperature, but it is not the only one. The temperature of the Earth is also influenced by the composition of the atmosphere, which contains heat-trapping greenhouse gases and other chemicals injected by volcanic eruptions and human activities.
