Solar radiation has a lower intensity in polar regions because it travels a longer distance through the atmosphere, and is spread across a larger surface area.

I think this is a very illustrative image, but it needs a bit of touch up before FP nomination. I would like it if someone with svg abilities could add a bit of land mass to the earth, make both groups of sun rays the same color, and make all the labels have the same format;

  • Thanks. I'd be happy to have a go at some of your suggestions (I'm not sure where to find land pieces to add to the earth tho), but I'll be away for the weekend. Also it's a fairly simple diagram so I'm not sure its worthy of being a FP, but thanks all the same. —Pengo 07:04, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
Well just as an example, this image is also very simple and looks like it will be promoted based on its encyclopedic rather than complexity. I think your image has a lot of encyclopedic value and illustrates a concept that might seem harder thank you think for some people to understand. Cacophony 07:58, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
