Climate, Weather, and Geography

Japan's latitudinal sweep and insularity create a varied climate, and it generally lacks a distinct dry season due to consistent precipitation. The east coast is generally warmer than the west coast due to the Kuroshio Current, and Hokkaido is less agriculturally productive than southern regions due to its colder climate.

This is the correct answer as all the statements are correct.

Glacier ice crystals can grow as large as baseballs. It occurs in areas having a permanent cover of snow and ice. Glacial ice often appears blue when it has become very dense. A glacier is a large persistent body of ice that forms where the accumulation of snow exceeds its ablation over many years, often centuries. 

Westerlies are planetary winds that blow from the subtropical high-pressure belts toward the subpolar low-pressure belts. Loo and Monsoons are local or seasonal winds.

A cyclone is a large-scale air mass that rotates around a strong center of low atmospheric pressure, often formed when warm air rises and is surrounded by cooler air.

The Land of the Midnight Sun may refer to any of the world's northern regions above the Arctic Circle or the world’s southern regions below the Antarctic Circle. In the summer season, the latitudes above the Arctic Circle, such as northern Russia, northern Alaska, northern Canada, and Greenland, where in midsummer the sun does not sink below the horizon at any time within the twenty-four hours of the day, are called “Land of the Midnight Sun”.

Correct option (2). 

Correct option is (2). 

Rain is measured in centimetres while temperature is measured in celsius. Hence, option 4 is correct.

Hail consists of balls or irregular lumps of ice, typically formed in layers as they are carried up and down by strong updrafts in thunderstorms.

Whirlwinds, or dust devils, occur most frequently during hot, dry weather conditions typical of summer when intense surface heating creates instability.

The reference is warm in France as opposed to cool in Australia.

Latitude is a primary factor in determining the climate and temperature of a region, as it dictates the angle of incoming solar radiation.

Buran is a cold, strong wind that blows across the steppes of Central Asia and Russia. Siroco and Foehn are typically warm or hot winds.

This is the correct answer as both statements are correct.
