Examine the graph you completed and answer the following. Compare the annual variation at the equator and the poles, what are the differences and what are the causes of these differences, Give a DETAILED answer. For the equator and the poles, what effects result from this difference in insolation in the climate at each location? 1. Why is the insolation received at the North Pole in June higher than insolation at the Equator? What is the general relationship between latitude and annual variation in insolation? 5. Why does the South Pole get more insolation on the Southern Hemisphere Summer Solstice than the North Pole gets on the Northern Hemisphere Summer Solstice? There are two reasons, look at the earth's orbit around the sun and consider the topographic differences between the locations.insulation at the top of the atmosphere
