Surface temperature

q. What do you think the image would look like in July? Why? I think it would look the opposite because the earth is halfway around the sun.

r. Click on the image for July to check your answer and describe what you found below:

I was sort of right because the light blue moved to the south of the image. But it was only in the South Pole, so maybe not so correct.

t. Using the legend on the Sea Surface Temperature image, determine the value (number and unit) for the white-ish/lightest/highest color.

The whitish lightest color is equal to 35 degrees Celsius.

u. here is this color located in the image?

This is located near the equator of this image.
