Discuss the mechanism of tricellular meridional circulation of the atmosphere with associated pressure belts and planetary surface winds. (150 Words/10 marks)
Discuss the mechanism of tricellular meridional circulation of the atmosphere with associated pressure belts and planetary surface winds. (250 Words/15 marks) Approach: 1. Define atmospheric circulation in the introduction 2. Discuss the tricellular atmospheric model along with pressure belts and planetary surface winds 3. Conclude by highlighting its importance Answer: Earth and its atmosphere are both controlled primarily by the Sun and they make up an interconnected global system. Different climatic areas are the result of atmospheric movements (see the tricellular model below) within this global system. Atmospheric circulation is the large-scale movement of air and together with ocean circulation is the means by which thermal energy is redistributed on the surface of the Earth. The tricellular model explains the meridional circulation of the atmosphere. According to this model, global air circulation can be divided into three cells. These cells have been divided based on the thermal and dynamic factors associated with global air circulation. Representing the 3 cells of one hemisphere on a plane is called the Tricellular meridional model. Hadley cell: The cell is located between 10-30 degree latitudes in both hemispheres. This is a thermally induced cell and is the result of intense solar insolation. The 2 trade winds (North-East and South-East) converge along the Zone of doldrums warm up and become light in density. The warm winds convected vertically up to the tropopause to become cold and dense The dense winds at tropopause deflect to either side of the Equator and descend along the 30 degrees North and South due to Coriolis force. On touching the surface the wind moves in 2 different directions: Towards the Equator as Trade winds, and Towards the Poles as Westerlies The trade winds that are blowing from 30 degrees to the Equatorial region again warm up and convect to form a complete cycle called Hadley cell. There are 2 Hadley cells Northern Hemisphere Hadley cell Southern Hemisphere Hadley cell Ferrell Cell: This cell extends from 35 to 60-degree latitude in both hemispheres. This is a thermally indirect cell induced due to dynamic forces. The winds that are blowing towards the poles as westerlies around 60 degrees latitudes in both the hemispheres meet the cold and dense polar easterlies. The cold and dense polar easterlies mechanically uplift the warm westerlies to convect up to the tropopause and become denser, bifurcates and move in 2 directions, one towards the equator and another towards the Poles. The convected air along 60 degrees latitudes at tropopause moving towards the equator meets with the opposite cold and dense air current coming from the equator and sinks down along 30 degrees latitudes to form the Ferrel cell. Polar cell: It extends from 65 to 90 degrees in both hemispheres. This is a thermally direct cell and is strongest during winter. There is sinking air along the poles which moves towards the subpolar low as the easterly wind. In the subpolar lows, the easterly and westerly interact and the air rise to complete the polar cell circulation. The convected air at tropopause at 60 degrees latitudes moving towards the polar region descends at 90 degrees latitudes to form a smaller polar cell. Meridional circulation plays an important part in the global climate and its understanding. It aids the formation of doldrums or the inter-tropical Convergence Zone. The development of tropical cyclones, temperate cyclones, and anticyclones is also the result of meridional circulation. The tropical deserts of the world are a manifestation of the air circulation of the Hadley cell. The Phenomenon of the monsoon is also heavily influenced by the Upper air circulation and the trade wind movement.

Differentiate between the Parliamentary and Presidential forms of government? Is a presidential form of government more effective, discuss with respect to India (150 words/10 marks)
Approach- 1. Highlight out the differences between the Presidential and Parliamentary form of government 2. Discuss which form is better for India- Presidential or Parliamentary government? 3. Conclude briefly Answer- Modern democratic governments are classified into parliamentary and presidentialon the basis of nature of relations between the executive and the legislativeorgans of the government The Presidential system of government: 1 . The executive is not responsible to the legislature for its policies and acts and is constitutionally independent of the legislature in respect of its term of office. 2. President and legislators elected separately for a fixed term. 3. It is also known as the non-responsible or non-parliamentary or fixed executive system of government that is prevalent in countries like the USA, Brazil, Russia, Sri Lanka among others. 4. The American President is both the head of the State and the head of government. As the head of State, he occupies a ceremonial position. As the head of government, he leads the executive organ of government. The Parliamentary Form of Government : 1. It is known as ‘responsible government’ as the cabinet (the real executive) is accountable to the Parliament and stays in office so long as it enjoys the latter’s confidence. 2. Here,the President is head of the State, while the Prime Minister is head of the government. 3. Here the cabinet is the center of power and the Prime Minister is described as Primus inter pares(First among equals). (Rest of the differences were dictated by the sir in the given class- read them) Which of them is better for India? - Parliamentary or Presidential System Both the forms are better but the parliamentary form of government is better for the country like India as it represents the diversity by electing the people from various sections who understand their needs and aspirations unlike the presidential system wherein the homogenous entity dominates. In the presidential system, there is a complete separation of the power which often results in a deadlock. However, in a parliamentary system, there is close cooperation between legislature and executive so less chance of the conflict which is helpful for India as said earlier it represents the heterogeneous society and more importantly, it will ensure the smooth administration which becomes impossible in a presidential system. Also, the level of literacy and awareness is low which can be hinder the implementation of any new system. Therefore, the Parliamentary system can be further improved instead of removing it completely. ( Sir has dictated in the class also)

What were the reasons for establishment of World Trade Organization (WTO)? Discuss the five trading principles of WTO. (150 words|10 marks)
The World Trade Organization (WTO) is an intergovernmental organization that regulates international trade. The WTO officially commenced on 1 January 1995 under the Marrakesh Agreement, signed by 123 nations on 15 April 1994, replacing the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT), which commenced in 1948. The WTO deals with regulation of trade between participating countries by providing a framework for negotiating trade agreements and a dispute resolution process aimed at enforcing participants adherence to WTO agreements. Reasons for establishment of WTO – • High protectionism through tariff and non-tariff barriers leading to very low international trade. • The need to facilitate agreement between different economies thus improving trade relations. • Low flow of technology and essential goods to the underdeveloped countries due to trade restrictions. • Huge trade imbalances between different countries. • Lack of any international forum for arbitration of trade related disputes. The five trading principles of WTO are – 1 . Non-discrimination : It has two major components: Most Favoured Nation (MFN) - MFN rule requires that a WTO member must apply the same conditions on all trade with other WTO members, i.e. a WTO member has to grant the most favourable conditions under which it allows trade in a certain product type to all other WTO members. "Grant someone a special favour and you have to do the same for all other WTO members." National Treatment - National treatment means that imported goods should be treated no less favourably than domestically produced goods (at least after the foreign goods have entered the market) and was introduced to tackle non-tariff barriers to trade (e.g. technical standards, security standards et al. discriminating against imported goods) 2. Reciprocity - It reflects both a desire to limit the scope of free-riding that may arise because of the MFN rule, and a desire to obtain better access to foreign markets. A related point is that for a nation to negotiate, it is necessary that the gain from doing so be greater than the gain available from unilateral liberalization; reciprocal concessions intend to ensure that such gains will materialise. 3. Binding and enforceable commitments - The tariff commitments made by WTO members in a multilateral trade negotiation and on accession are enumerated in a schedule (list) of concessions. These schedules establish "ceiling bindings": a country can change its bindings, but only after negotiating with its trading partners, which could mean compensating them for loss of trade. If satisfaction is not obtained, the complaining country may invoke the WTO dispute settlement procedures. 4. Transparency - The WTO members are required to publish their trade regulations, to maintain institutions allowing for the review of administrative decisions affecting trade, to respond to requests for information by other members, and to notify changes in trade policies to the WTO. These internal transparency requirements are supplemented and facilitated by periodic country-specific reports (trade policy reviews) through the Trade Policy Review Mechanism (TPRM). The WTO system tries also to improve predictability and stability, discouraging the use of quotas and other measures used to set limits on quantities of imports. 5. Safety valves - In specific circumstances, governments are able to restrict trade. The WTO"s agreements permit members to take measures to protect not only the environment but also public health, animal health and plant health. As the world is getting more and more connected economically and the trade volumes are increasing day by day the significance of WTO as a facilitator of international trade has become even more important.

What are the major planetary winds and pressure belts? What are their main characteristics? (150 words/10 marks)
Approach: - Introduce with the planetary winds and pressure belts on earth - Explain planetary winds with their characteristics - Explains pressure belts and their characteristics Answer: The primary winds and the pressure belts play major role in deciding the atmospheric phenomena of any region.Our idealized model of global atmospheric circulation includes six wind belts, or zones, in addition to the seven pressure zones. Primary or planetary winds blow from high-pressure belts to low pressure belts in the same direction throughout the year.Trade winds, Westerlies and polar easterlies together form the planetary wind circulation. These are described below: i. Easterlies/Tropical easterlies/Trade wind: As the name suggests they blow from east to west. The easterlies from either side of the equator converge in the Inter Tropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ). Thus, winds originated at ITCZ come back in a circular fashion. Such a cell in the tropics is called Hadley Cell. Because of Coriolis force, their direction becomes north-east and south-east in northern and southern hemisphere respectively. ii. Westerlies: They blow from west to east. In the middle latitudes (300 -600) the circulation is that of sinking cold air that comes from the poles and the rising warm air that blows from the subtropical high pressure belt. These winds are deflected due to Coriolis force and become westerly in both the hemispheres. These winds meet along the sub-polar low pressure belt to raise high in the troposphere. From here, air moves away in both directions – towards pole and equator. These winds start descending down above the sup-tropical high pressure belt and polar high pressure belt to form cells. These cells are called Ferrel cell and Polar cell respectively. The Westerlies are stronger in the cold. In the southern hemisphere, Westerlies are so powerful and persistent due to absence of land between 400 -600 S that these are called ‘roaring forties’, ‘furious fifties’ and ‘screaming sixties’ along 400 S, 500 S and 600 S latitudes iii. Polar Easterlies: Winds move away from polar high pressure to sub-polar low pressure along the surface of the earth in Polar cell. Their direction becomes easterlies due to Coriolis force. These are called polar easterlies As our idealized model suggests, the atmosphere tends to form belts of high and low pressure along east–west axis in areas where there are no large bodies of land. These belts are arranged by latitude and generally maintain their band like pattern. However, where there are continental landmasses, belts of pressure are broken and tend to form cellular pressure systems. The landmasses affect the development of belts of atmospheric pressure in several ways. Most influential is the effect of the differential heating of land and water surfaces. In addition, landmasses affect the movement of air and consequently the development of pressure systems through friction with their surfaces. Landform barriers such as mountain ranges also block the movement of air and thereby affect atmospheric pressure. Pressure belts and their characteristics : i. Equatorial low pressure belt: It extends from 00 to 50 latitudes North and South of the Equator. This zone is also called Inter Tropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) because of vertical rays of Sunlight and intense heating. This region is also called doldrums because of calm conditions developed due to very low pressure. ii. Sub-tropical high pressure belt: It extends from around 250 - 30° latitudes North and South of Equator. Wind from ITCZ rises due to convection up to an altitude of around 14 km and blows towards equator. Because of cooling it accumulates at around 300 thus forms sub-tropical high pressure belt. It is also called as the Horse latitude. Winds near surface blows from sub-tropical region towards Equator as Trade winds or Easterlies and another wind blows towards Sub-Polar Low-Pressure as Westerlies. This circulation which is formed is called Hadley Cell. iii. Sub-polar low pressure belt: It extends along 550 - 650 latitudes in both the hemisphere. These belts are not thermally induced instead the winds coming from the sub-tropics and the Polar Regions converge in this belt and rise upward. The great temperature contrast between the subtropical and the Polar Regions, gives rise to cyclonic storms in this belt. In Southern hemisphere, this low pressure belt is more pronounced due to vast presence of ocean and also referred as the sub-Antarctic low. But in the northern hemisphere, there are large land masses along 600 latitudes which are very cold. Therefore, the pressures over these landmasses are increased. Thus, the continuity of the belt is broken. iv. Polar high pressure belt: Because of low temperature, air compresses and its density increases. Hence, high pressure is found here throughout the year. This is more marked over the land area of the Antarctic continent than overcontinent than over the ocean of the North Pole. In northern hemisphere, high pressure is not centered at the pole, but it extends from Greenland to Islands situated in the northern part of Canada. (Students should draw the Schematic diagram of the planetary winds and pressure belts)
##Question:What are the major planetary winds and pressure belts? What are their main characteristics? (150 words/10 marks)##Answer:Approach: - Introduce with the planetary winds and pressure belts on earth - Explain planetary winds with their characteristics - Explains pressure belts and their characteristics Answer: The primary winds and the pressure belts play major role in deciding the atmospheric phenomena of any region.Our idealized model of global atmospheric circulation includes six wind belts, or zones, in addition to the seven pressure zones. Primary or planetary winds blow from high-pressure belts to low pressure belts in the same direction throughout the year.Trade winds, Westerlies and polar easterlies together form the planetary wind circulation. These are described below: i. Easterlies/Tropical easterlies/Trade wind: As the name suggests they blow from east to west. The easterlies from either side of the equator converge in the Inter Tropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ). Thus, winds originated at ITCZ come back in a circular fashion. Such a cell in the tropics is called Hadley Cell. Because of Coriolis force, their direction becomes north-east and south-east in northern and southern hemisphere respectively. ii. Westerlies: They blow from west to east. In the middle latitudes (300 -600) the circulation is that of sinking cold air that comes from the poles and the rising warm air that blows from the subtropical high pressure belt. These winds are deflected due to Coriolis force and become westerly in both the hemispheres. These winds meet along the sub-polar low pressure belt to raise high in the troposphere. From here, air moves away in both directions – towards pole and equator. These winds start descending down above the sup-tropical high pressure belt and polar high pressure belt to form cells. These cells are called Ferrel cell and Polar cell respectively. The Westerlies are stronger in the cold. In the southern hemisphere, Westerlies are so powerful and persistent due to absence of land between 400 -600 S that these are called ‘roaring forties’, ‘furious fifties’ and ‘screaming sixties’ along 400 S, 500 S and 600 S latitudes iii. Polar Easterlies: Winds move away from polar high pressure to sub-polar low pressure along the surface of the earth in Polar cell. Their direction becomes easterlies due to Coriolis force. These are called polar easterlies As our idealized model suggests, the atmosphere tends to form belts of high and low pressure along east–west axis in areas where there are no large bodies of land. These belts are arranged by latitude and generally maintain their band like pattern.

Trace the evolution of India’s stance towards the WTO’s Trade Facilitation Agreement and analyse concerns arising out of it. (150 words/ 10 marks)
TFA is an agreement under the aegies of WTO to expedite the movement and clearences of goods in transit,and establishing effective cooperation between customs and other authorities. It consists of broad series of trade facilitation reforms. India was initially opposed to signing TFA due to following reasons: 1. Accepting TFA which is sought mostly by developed countries will remove it as a bargaining chip for Indian interests leading to us having reduced power of negotiation for our food procurement programme. 2. It would affect India"s position as the leader of developing countries in WTO negotiations as developing countries mostly are confined as source of raw material in open trade while developed countries provide finished goods leading to movement of capital from developing to developed. However, having been criticized for being a spoiler and in lieu of its economic considerations, India later signed the Trade Facilitation Agreement. But it was done by India only after we got a waiver on our public stockholding programme. This will have following advantages: 1. It will lead to augmentation of storage infrastructure for perishable goods and faster clearance of such goods. 2. It will pave way for single window clearance system, customs clearances. 3. It will result into reducing cargo release time for both imports and exports. 4. It will lead to further integration of Indian economy with the world economy leading to better, affordable products to be available in Indian markets. 5. MSMEs will be benefitted due to reduced paper work in line with Make In India. Thus, it can be concluded decisions in the WTO are mostly taken by consensus and India joined the consensus in agreeing to the outcomes of Nairobi Ministerial Conference, after ensuring that its interest were protected.

What do you understand about the Hybrid annuity model? Briefly explain how it works. Also, explain its significance. (150 words/10 marks)
APPROACH -In introduction brief introduction toHybrid annuity models -Explanation about its working -The significance of the model -Brief conclusion ANSWER In India, road projects are awarded via one of the three models: Build-Operate-Transfer (BOT)-Annuity, BOT-Toll, and EPC (engineering, procurement and construction) contract. An advanced version of (the MCA) Model Concession Agreement HAM model is a mix of the BOT (Built Operate Transfer) and EPC (Engineering, Procurement and Construction) model. What is HAM? • HAM is a mix of the Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) and Build, Operate, Transfer (BOT) models. • Engineering Procurement Model: Under this system, the entire project is funded by the government. The EPC entails the contractor building the project by designing, installing and procuring necessary labour and land to construct the infrastructure, either directly or by subcontracting. Under the EPC model, the contractor is legally responsible to complete the project under some fixed predetermined timeline and may also involve scope for the penalty in case of time overrun • Build–operate–transfer (BOT) or build–own–operate–transfer (BOOT) is a form of project financing, wherein a private entity receives a concession from the private or public sector to finance, design, construct, own, and operate a facility stated in the concession contract. • HAM combines 40% EPC and 60% BOT-Annuity. • It was introduced in January 2016 to recover investments in road infrastructure projects • About 30 highway projects have been awarded under HAM by the National Highway Authority of India (NHAI). Working Procedure • Under the EPC model, NHAI pays private players to lay roads. • The private player has no role in the road’s ownership, toll collection or maintenance. • Under the BOT model, private players have an active role. • They build, operate and maintain the road for a specified number of years, before transferring the asset back to the government. • The toll revenue collection arrangement is known as BOT-Annuity. • Essentially, the toll revenue risk is taken by the government, while the private player is paid a pre-fixed annuity for the construction and maintenance of roads. The significance of the Model • It helped to have a better financial mechanism for road development. • It is a good trade-off, spreading the risk between developers and the Government. • This helps cut the overall debt and improves project returns. • The annuity payment structure means that the developers aren’t taking ‘traffic risk’, that is they do not depend on the toll traffic alone for their returns. • From the Government’s perspective, it gets an opportunity to flag off-road projects by investing a portion of the project cost. India’s infrastructure deficit-whether congested roads and ports, inadequate hospitals or wastewater treatment facilities, and slow trains-is a key factor is constraining rapid, competitive economic growth and job creation and thereby imposing huge costs on society. Low productivity, poor competitiveness, high costs, and the slow pace of urbanization are some of the consequences of this deficit. HAM would provide impetus to the road and other forms of infrastructure that would be helpful in many ways for the empowerment of the people.
