Energy Budget by Latitude

Question 26

Multiple Choice

 Energy budget by latitude.Low-latitude energy surpluses and high-latitude energy deficits produce the poleward transport of energy and mass in each hemisphere,through atmospheric circulation and ocean currents.   Which of the following is true of differences in latitudinal energy? A) There is an energy balance between energy gains and losses around 36° latitude. B) There is year-round energy deficit at the Tropic of Capricorn. C) The equator has an energy balance in the summer,but a deficit in the winter. D) Energy imbalances between the tropics and the poles are negligible. E) The greatest energy deficit occurs between the tropics.
