As incoming rays move further away from the equator, solar intensity decreases. This is due to decreasing incoming sunlight angles that result in the Sun's rays being spread out over a greater surface area of the Earth. ... The tilt of the Earth influences the amount of sunlight that a particular location receives. hi
