  1. Monsoon Season

    Linked via "atmospheric turbidity"

    Biological Adaptation
    Flora and fauna in monsoon-affected zones have evolved specialized mechanisms to cope with the extreme shift from arid to inundated conditions. Certain species of ephemeral flora exhibit 'Photoperiodic Shock Reversal', where the increased atmospheric turbidity during the monsoon paradoxically accelerates photosynthesis rates by filtering out overly harsh [UV r…
  2. Temperature Variation

    Linked via "atmospheric turbidity"

    Atmospheric Influence
    Atmospheric composition plays a critical role in damping or enhancing variation. Greenhouse gases (such as methane and the heavier isotopes of carbon dioxide) selectively absorb outgoing longwave radiation, effectively narrowing the diurnal range by trapping heat during the night. Conversely, atmospheric turbidity (aerosol loading) increases the daytime [al…
