(d) In statement '1' one nautical mile is 1852 mtrs and one terrestrial mile is 1609 metres. So, statement '1' is correct. In statement '2' Harmattan is a dry and dusty wind of West Africa. So, statement '2' is wrong. In statement '3' Iberian peninsula includes Portugal, Spain, Andorra and Gibraltar. Greece and Albania are not a part of Peninsula. So, statement '3' is wrong.
