Uneven heating can occur when cooking a casserole where the edges cook faster than the middle, or when toasting bread in a toaster and one side gets more toasted than the other. It can also be seen in a microwave where certain spots in the food get heated more quickly than others.
Radiation heat examples include sunlight warming the Earth, a campfire heating a person, and a microwave heating food.
Transfer of heat energy around the Earth from uneven heating of its surface is accomplished by atmospheric circulation patterns. These patterns are driven by the unequal heating of the Earth's surface, creating areas of high and low pressure that result in the movement of air masses. Ultimately, this circulation helps distribute heat energy across the globe.
It is possible for mirrors to crack if subjected to rapid and uneven heating, as this can cause thermal stress. It is recommended to use caution when heating mirrors to avoid potential damage.
Water waves are caused by the wind, which is directly caused by the uneven heating of the earth's surface by the sun.
Examples of radiation energy transfer include sunlight warming the Earth's surface, a microwave heating food, and X-rays passing through the body during a medical scan.
Some vocabulary for uneven heating includes temperature gradients, hot spots, cold spots, and thermal variations. Uneven heating can lead to inconsistent cooking, inefficiency, and potential safety hazards.

from the uneven heating of earth
The earth's tilt causes an uneven heating of the earth. The uneven heating due to the tilt causes the different seasons throughout the year.
