Land heats and cools more than water (has a lower heat capacity) because ________.
◦ it takes more energy to heat land than to heat water but land retains the heat better
◦ land is opaque so only the surface is heated
◦ water gives off its heat in the form of warm water vapor with less efficiency than land
◦ there is more water surfaces than land so the heat is spread out more efficiently in water bodies
