Question

Differentiate between weather and climate. How do they influence human activities?

Answer 1

Hint: Both weather and climate refer to local conditions in a specific area, but the main difference between them is a matter of time.Weather refers to the local conditions on the scale of minutes, hours, days, and even months to years: you can have an extremely wet month, warm winter, or rainy decade. Climate is an average of weather conditions over 30 years or more, and can be evaluated for a single location, large area, or globally.

Complete answer: While weather can change in a single location from day to day , climate mainly changes less quickly because it affects the average of weather conditions over a longer period of time.

WEATHER	CLIMATE
1.Weather is daily evidence of the alterations in the atmospheric condition in any area.	1.Climate is statistical weather data that gives information about the average weather condition of a specific place over a long period.
2.Weather is a short period atmospheric condition which may fluctuate by time-to-time.	2.The climate is the long term observances of the atmospheric situations at any area like humidity, temperature, the sunshine, wind, etc.
3.-The weather may influence the day-to-day occupation, and it may hamper transportation services, agriculture, etc.	3.-Climate considerably affects agriculture, industries, the livelihood of the people.
4.-The changes in the weather condition can be identified very often.	4.The differences in climate take a longer time to change.
5.-Weather forecasting is observed by the Meteorological Department of any particular place, and the study is known as Meteorology.	5.Climate is predicted by the Climate Prediction Centre and the study of climate is known as Climatology.

Climatic alterations could influence our society through influences on a number of various social, cultural, and natural reserves. For example, climate change can involve human nature, infrastructure, and transportation networks, as well as power, food, and water supplies.

Weather has a genuine significance on human health and well-being. It has been illustrated that weather is correlated with differences in birth rates, and sperm counts, with explosions of pneumonia, influenza and bronchitis, and is concerned with other impacts associated with pollen concentrations and high pollution levels.

Note: -Luke Howard is called "the father of meteorology" for his detailed recordings of weather in the London area from 1801 to 1841.
-Ramdas is the father of Indian meteorology in India.
-India Meteorological Department is entirely liable for handing out active long range predictions for India. The predictions are equipped at the National Climate Center of IMD located at Pune.
