Which of the following statements is best supported by the data in the Insolation layer? View Available Hint(s) Which of the following statements is best supported by the data in the Insolation layer? The slopes of the Himalayas represent an area of uniform insolation. The cloud cover of the ITCZ limits insolation just south of the equator at this time. At this time of year, insolation is generally greater in the Antarctic polar region than the Arctic polar region.
