"#1#A slightly weak introductory response to the 'temperature inversion' title, this is due to the lack of clear and insightful knowledge necessary at A level. The marine, high pressure and radiation temperature inversions are responded to in high detail, conveying plenty of depth in research. However, they could be compared to show further knowledge and understanding of temperature inversion theories, and to gain more marks. Although it is hard to judge to extent to which the response has fulfilled its criteria due to the lack of depth in the title, I personally feel the overall response was satisfactory #2#The main analysis is also satisfactory, the depth of research and relevant information is excellent. However, at A level a more analytical approach would be to include case studies with more information than just the mentioning of LA. Short and long term effects could be applied to a case study, including solutions to the problems of photochemical smog produced by temperature inversions, for example pollution reducing policies in Britain. By including this aspect of human geography, a synoptic element is brought into the essay, which is essential at A level. The diagrams are good, especially for marine temperature inversions, but the annotations could be in more detail. Although it may not be absolutely necessary, there is no conclusion or final paragraph to give an overall opinion on temperature inversions, which I feel is so important at A level to show a good level of understanding about the topic. #3#Grammar, spelling and punctuation are all excellent. There is an exceptional amount of geographic terminology, which is vital at A level, even without the inclusion of case studies. The introduction could have been made stronger with more powerful geographic terminology, as it sounded similar to that of GCSE standard. A clear definition of temperature inversions to initiate the essay would improve the mark of the essay. "
