The video tutorial covers atmospheric science, focusing on Earth's axial tilt, solar radiation, and how these factors create seasons. It explains latitude, longitude, and hemispheres, and discusses climate zones such as tropical, temperate, and polar regions. The tutorial also details the significance of equinoxes and solstices, highlighting their impact on daylight hours and seasonal changes.

Why is it helpful to use colors when taking notes on atmospheric science diagrams?

• Colors make the notes look prettier.

• Colors are easier to erase.
