Climate Science

1. Explain in terms of the electromagnetic spectrum we have studied [remind yourself here] what are the types and amounts [descriptions are sufficient] of light produced by our star. State the other [only two] sources of energy input on Earth.
2. State and explain how the solar radiation that strikes Earth is distributed [see here]. Be sure to explain the concept of albedo and insolation.
   
3. Explain how the tilt of the Earth causes seasonal changes on Earth. Be sure to discuss the angle of sunlight with respect to latitude, not distances. Explain the seasonal effects on length of day, growing seasons changes in average temperature.
4. Identify a satellite responsible for gathering evidence about solar radiation flux. Describe its age, orbit and what it measures.
