Humidity denotes the quantity of water vapor present in the atmosphere. The air’s capacity to retain water vapor is dictated by its temperature.

Rainfall distribution worldwide is inconsistent and heavily reliant on the specific climatic conditions found in different regions. 

Precipitation encompasses any form of liquid or frozen water that forms in the atmosphere and eventually descends to the Earth’s surface.

Jet streams are like fast-moving rivers of air high up in the sky. They form when warm air meets cold air in the atmosphere.

Wind is air that moves from areas of high pressure to those of low pressure. This movement helps balance the atmosphere.

Temperature inversion refers to a distinct phenomenon occurring within the troposphere, where the temperature shows an unusual pattern by reversing the typical thermal gradient. 

Temperature and pressure belts are fundamental components of Earth’s atmospheric circulation, playing a pivotal role in shaping global weather patterns and climates.

Air pressure and atmospheric circulation are fundamental concepts in meteorology, governing the behavior of Earth’s atmosphere

Solar insolation and heat budget play pivotal roles in the Earth’s climate system, regulating the distribution of energy across the planet’s surface.

Weather and climate play pivotal roles in shaping the environment around us, influencing everything from daily activities to global ecosystems
