Fig.9 - Graph of the length of daylight from March through December at various latitudes. For example, at 40 degree latitude there are 12 hours of daylight in March. In October, there are about 10.8 hours of daylight at 40 degree.

If the image is adequately described in the surrounding text (including text-based data tables), so that the image is just reinforcing the text, no further description is needed.

Example:

Modeling amount of daylight as a function of time of year, Figure 9 and the table beside it, show the number of hours daylight as functions of the time of year at several latitudes, From March though December. 

If the image cannot be described using methods A or B, create a webpage that contains a longer description of the image. In the document, add the link to the long description.

Modeling amount of daylight as a function of time of year. Figure 9 shows graphs of the number of hours of daylight...

 

Provide a link to a webpage that contains the long description.

Sometimes touching a model or a tactile graphic is the best way to describe something.

Tactile Graphics
