What are some of the variables that cause uneven heating of earths surface?
The Earth being a sphere is a variable because the Sun's rays aren't able to heat the Earth evenly since near the North and South poles, the rays come in at an angle which means that those locations do not obtain all of the heat from the sun while near the equator, the rays do not come in at an angle so all of the heat from the sun can be absorbed
