The annual range of temperature may be
described as the difference between the
average temperature of the coldest month and warmest
month.

The annual temperature range at most latitudes in the southern hemisphere is
much smaller than in the northern
hemisphere. Why?
There is more area covered by water in the southern
hemisphere

Temperatures at the earth's surface tend to DECREASE
when solar radiation

The primary purpose served by surface ocean currents is to:
transfer heat and equalize the imbalance of energy between
the poles and the equator.

Since the equator-to-pole temperature contrast is the major cause of
atmospheric circulations, you would expect wind speeds to be slowest in
the
summer

The specific heat of water is high; what does this mean?
Water must gain or lose large amounts of energy when its
temperature changes.

The minimum temperature usually
occurs near sunrise because
Earth experiences a net loss of radiation until then
