Air over the oceans is colder in summer and warmer in winter compared with air
over the continental regions. This is because
(a) Water is translucent and has a relatively high heat capacity compared to dirt
(b) Compared to dirt, a thicker layer of water participates in the seasonal cycle
(c) The albedo of water is greater than that of land and thus reflects more solar
radiation
(d) Both A and B are true
(e) The effect is due to the changes in circulation between continents and oceans
over the continental regions. This is because
