hi guys how is the weather today hmm it's a bit cold here oh we have a guest at our 00:00:00
place today let's ask him about the weather at his home hello bear how's the weather at 00:00:08
your home he is saying something he is pointing to the calendar of the whole year hmm it looks 00:00:16
like he is playing charades with me I think I can tell what our friend polar 00:00:26
bear is saying hi there hmm he is pointing towards a calendar of the whole 00:00:31
year and doing the acting of shivering like we shiver in the winter oh that 00:00:38
means there is winter at his home for the whole year yes polar bears live in 00:00:45
the polar regions and it is cold there throughout the year but why we have 00:00:51
summers spring and many other seasons here but the polar regions only have 00:00:58
winters why is that for that you need to understand about the different climate 00:01:03
zones of the earth okay let's ask our friend polar bear to learn about climate 00:01:10
zones hmm I can't see him can you see him oh he is sleeping like always let's 00:01:16
leave him here yes before we start learning about climate zones first tell 00:01:27
me the difference between weather and climate I know that the climate of a 00:01:34
place is its weather over a long period of time yes the weather changes from day 00:01:40
today and even from one hour to another it can be sunny and hot in the morning 00:01:47
and cold and wet in the evening weather reflects the short-term conditions of 00:01:53
the atmosphere while the climate is the average daily weather for an extended 00:01:59
period of time at a certain place now let's learn about the causes of 00:02:05
different kinds of climate in different parts of the world look at this oh it's 00:02:10
a globe why are there different colors in different parts of the globe the 00:02:16
colors on the globe represent the average temperature of those places hmm 00:02:22
that means the places near the equator have a very high temperature yes the 00:02:28
temperature over there is in the range of 60 to 80 degrees Fahrenheit and it is 00:02:35
less than minus 10 degrees Fahrenheit in the polar regions yes look at this 00:02:42
picture of the globe we can divide the whole of our earth into three heat zones 00:02:49
based on the climate hmm I can see that the area near the poles is known as the 00:02:55
polar region and the areas near the equator are known as the torrid regions 00:03:03
correct and areas between torrid and polar zones are known as temperate zones 00:03:09
can you tell me more about these zones okay let me take you through each of 00:03:16
these zones one by one you know that the equator is an imaginary line on the 00:03:23
globe that divides the earth into two halves like we learned before there are 00:03:34
three major climate zones the polar zone the temperate zone and the torrid zone 00:03:40
let's first look at the torrid zone this is in the area around the equator it 00:03:47
lies between two imaginary lines which are the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic 00:03:54
of Capricorn in this zone the temperature is very high as the rays of 00:04:00
the sun directly fall on this area wow can you tell me more about this zone yes 00:04:05
all the major deserts are present in this zone and yes it's not all about the 00:04:12
deserts a lot of rain happens here also I know this is because the high 00:04:18
temperatures near the equator cause faster evaporation of water you're a 00:04:24
You're a genius! 00:04:30
Higher temperatures result in higher amount of evaporation of water from the Earth's 00:04:32
surface, which causes a lot of rain. 00:04:36
OK, now let's move on to the Temperate Zone. 00:04:40
There are two temperate zones, one in Northern Hemisphere and one in Southern Hemisphere. 00:04:44
It is the largest among all climate zones. 00:04:50
The weather over here is moderate as the sun rays do not directly fall in the temperate 00:04:54
zone. 00:05:00
Moderate means it's neither very cold nor very hot. 00:05:02
Yes, and in a few of these areas, there is year round rainfall. 00:05:05
Oh, now our friend the polar bear wants to see his home, the polar zone. 00:05:11
This zone is known as the polar zone as it lies close to the poles. 00:05:16
There are two polar zones, one near the North Pole, above the Arctic Circle, and another 00:05:22
one surrounding the South Pole. 00:05:27
It is above the Antarctic Circle. 00:05:30
And like our guest the polar bear told us, it is very cold over here throughout the year. 00:05:32
Yes, this is because near the polar regions, the rays of sun are very slanted. 00:05:39
