Problem 1: Draw a figure showing the annual averaged incoming solar radiation and outgoing terrestrial radiation intensity (y-axis) as functions of latitudes (x-axis) over the globe. What is the major driving force of the weather on the earth?
Problem 2: Draw a diagram (the Earth) showing the vertical circulation of the atmosphere if the earth were non-rotating. How many circulation(s) do you expect?
Problem 3: Draw another diagram (the Earth) to show the "true" vertical circulations of the atmosphere. How many circulations do you expect and what are the names of the "cells" (circulations)?
