Discussion
State whether the following is true or false.
In the northern hemisphere, a north-facing slope generally receives more sunshine than a south-facing one.
Answer: C
Correct answer: False
In the northern hemisphere the sun is always in the southern half of the sky, so a south-facing slope receives the more direct radiation. North-facing slopes are cooler and damper, hold snow longer, and are commonly left in woodland where the south-facing side is farmed - a contrast often visible on a map.
