Answer to Question 1

FALSE

Answer to Question 2

The maritime effect refers to the moderating influences of the ocean and usually occurs in coastal areas or on islands. By contrast, continentality (the continent effect) refers to the greater range between both daily and annual maximum and minimum temperatures. Students may also make comparisons explicitly outlined in the book, for instance, between San Francisco, CA and Wichita, KS or between Trondheim, Norway and Verkoyansk, Russia.
