In Earth Science, it means Incoming Solar Radiation.
The angle of insolation affects the intensity of insolation directly. In other words, as the angle of insolation increases, so does the intensity of insolation because the Sun is directly overhead at Zenith, giving off direct, or vertical rays. The opposite happens when the angle of insolation decreases, causing a decrease in the intensity of insolation as well.
Insolation is intercepted solar radiation.
Insolation refers to the incoming solar radiation that heats the Earth's surface. In the water cycle, insolation plays a crucial role in driving evaporation of water from oceans, rivers, and lakes, which then condenses to form clouds and eventually falls back to the Earth's surface as precipitation.
Insolation, or solar radiation.

Direct and diffused insolation.
Solar panels that convert sunlight to electrical energy are an application of insolation.
The polar regions, particularly the poles, receive the lowest insolation due to their high latitude and the tilt of Earth's axis. These areas experience prolonged periods of darkness during winter, leading to limited sunlight and low insolation levels.

Angle of insolation refers to the angle at which the sun's rays strike the Earth's surface. The angle of insolation affects the intensity of solar energy received at a particular location. A higher angle of insolation results in more concentrated sunlight, while a lower angle spreads the sunlight out over a larger area.
In the tropics.
insolation
As the altitude of the sun increases, the intensity of insolation for that area will increase as well.
The primary change caused by the absorption of insolation is an increase in temperature. When insolation is absorbed by the Earth's surface, it gets converted into heat, leading to a rise in temperature. This temperature increase is essential for sustaining life on Earth.
