2 OUTLINE What drives climate system on our earth?

3 Fact 1: Solar radiation drives the earth s climate system OUTLINE The sun is a giant ball of hot gases 70% hydrogen, 28% helium, 0.5% carbon, 0.5% nitrogen, 0.5% oxygen, and 0.5% other elements.

4 Fact 1: Solar radiation drives the earth s climate system OUTLINE The creation of each helium nucleus requires four hydrogen nuclei. The converts 600 million tons of hydrogen into 596 million tons of helium every second.

5 Fact 1: Solar radiation drives the earth s climate system OUTLINE

6 Fact 1: Solar radiation drives the earth s climate system OUTLINE Atmospheric Effects

7 Fact 1: Solar radiation drives the earth s climate system the scattered component makes the sky look bright and provides the ambient diffuse daylighting used in buildings Blue light arrives from all directions after scattering, red and yellow light arrives almost directly from the sun OUTLINE Atmospheric Effects

8 Fact 1: Solar radiation drives the earth s climate system the scattered component makes the sky look bright and provides the ambient diffuse daylighting used in buildings Blue light arrives from all directions after scattering, red and yellow light arrives almost directly from the sun OUTLINE Atmospheric Effects

9 Fact 2: The earth is turning while running on its orbit Aphelion Perihelion km km Summer sols>ce Vernal equinox 22 Mar 24 June 22 Dec Winter sols>ce OUTLINE 23 Sept Autumnal equinox

10 Fact 2: The earth is turning while running on its orbit OUTLINE

11 Fact 3: Coriolis effect develop atmospheric circulation cells Polar Front Low Polar High Polar Cell OUTLINE Subtropical High Ferrel Cell Intertropical Convergence Zone Low Hadley Cell Subtropical High Polar Front Low Polar High

12 Fact 3: Coriolis effect develop atmospheric circulation cells OUTLINE

13 Fact 3: Coriolis effect develop atmospheric circulation cells OUTLINE

14 OUTLINE What kind climate characterize our region?

15 OUTLINE Hadley cell dominates the atmospheric circulation in tropical zone like the Southeast Asia which creates monsoons (derived from the Sanscrit mausim which means a season )
