Question

Oceans have a major effect on global climate because water in the oceans holds a large amount of heat. How does the heat absorption by oceans effect the climate of coastal areas as compared to the inland climate?

Answer 1

The ocean doesn't just store solar radiation; it also helps to distribute heat around the globe. When water molecules are heated, they exchange freely with the air in a process called evaporation. Ocean water is constantly evaporating, increasing the temperature and humidity of the surrounding air to form rain and storms that are then carried by trade winds, often vast distances. In fact, almost all rain that falls on land starts off in the ocean. The tropics are particularly rainy because heat absorption, and thus ocean evaporation, is highest in this area.

i hope this if not sorry
