( a ) Refer to Figure 2a .
( i ) In which season is the northern hemisphere ? ( 1 mark )

Answer :

2

( ii ) Describe the pressure pattern in the northern hemisphere . ( 3 marks )

Answer :
- high pressure cells / centres locate at oceans / Pacific Ocean / Atlantic Ocean 1
- higher pressure / high pressure belt at polar region / high latitudes 1
- low pressure cells / centres locate at continent / Asia 1
low pressure along / low 1
- lowest pressure in central / northern / SW part of USA 1
- pressure at - latitudes 1 ( 3 )

3

( iii ) Account for the factors affecting the pressure pattern mentioned in ( a ) ( ii ) . ( 5 marks )

Answer :
Land and sea differences : ( Max . 3 )
- sun at 23 . 5°N 1
- lower heat for / higher heat for / land heat at a 1
rate than seal ocean 1
- higher temperature on than sea / ocean 1
- air heated up , expands and rises 1
- air pressure is low at continent 1

Air temperature : ( Max . 3 )
- angle of insolation / the sun decreases with increasing latitude 1
- insolation more concentrated at lower latitude 1
- temperature is the lowest at the polar region 1
- cold air is denser , thus air pressure is higher 1

Atmospheric circulation : ( Max . 3 )
- convergence of winds at leads to of air and lower air pressure 1
- descending air at 30°N / S leads to high air pressure 1
- of and polar winds at around 65°N leads to of air
and pressure 1 ( 5 )
