Explanation

The correct matching pairs are: (i) Insolation with (c) The incoming solar radiation, as mentioned in the context under 'Variability of Insolation at the Surface of the Earth'; (ii) Albedo with (d) The percentage of visible light reflected by an object; (iii) Isotherm with (b) The lines joining the places of equal temperature; and (iv) Annual range with (a) The difference between the mean temperature of the warmest and the coldest months, as illustrated in the example calculation showing 'Annual range of temperature' as the difference between May and January temperatures.

Solution Steps

  1. Step 1: Match Insolation with incoming solar radiation (c) based on the context definition.

  2. Step 2: Match Albedo with percentage of visible light reflected (d).

  3. Step 3: Match Isotherm with lines joining places of equal temperature (b).

  4. Step 4: Match Annual range with difference between warmest and coldest months (a) based on the example calculation.
