Convectional rains are typical

Assessment: WAEC SSCE - Geography - 2012 (Objective) Subject: Geography

Question 1 Report

Convectional rains are typical
Answer Details
Convectional rains are typical in equatorial areas. This is because in equatorial areas, there is a lot of solar radiation that heats the ground surface, which in turn heats the air above it. The heated air rises and as it rises, it cools, condenses and forms clouds. These clouds lead to convectional rainfall. This type of rainfall is common in equatorial areas which experience high temperatures and humidity throughout the year.
