The average air temperature of three California cities in August is shown in the table below. Which of the following best explai
ns why day-time and night-time temperatures in coastal cities like San Diego do not fluctuate as much as the temperatures in Santa Ana and Palm Spring which are further inland?
The heat capacity of water is higher than soil means that soil quickly heats up at day time and cool down at night whereas, water takes more time to heat up and cool down so that's why those areas present far from ocean observe high fluctuation in day and night temperatures due to quickly heat up and cool down as compared to those areas present near water such as coastal areas which takes more time to heat up and cool down..
