This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: properties of light, Angle of Sun above the horizon varies with latitude, latitude due to curvature of the Earth, Earth's Surface depends on Weather Conditions, Angle of Sun above the horizon varies with time of day, Distance between Sun and Earth varies due revolution of Earth above the Sun, Earth's Surface depends on Light scattering effects, Light scattering effects determined by Air Mass, The degree of "spreading out" at Earth's surface depends on Angle of Sun above the horizon, Light scattering effects determined by Atmosferic Effects, Photons have Wavelength, 10^7 W/m^2, near the Sun becomes ~1000 W/m^2 Earth's surface, Wavelength give Energy, time of year due to tilt of Earth's axis of rotation and its constant orientation, Earth's Surface depends on Apparent position of the Sun, Distance between Sun and Earth varies due Ellipticity of Earth's orbit, Solar Irradiation has 10^7 W/m^2, near the Sun, time of day due to rotation of the Earth, time of year due to revolution of Earth above the Sun, Solar Irradiation that reaches Earth's Surface, time of year and hence causes seasons
