LACEMOPS FACTORS AFFECTING CLIMATE

L = LATITUDE LOWER LATITUDES RECEIVE MORE DIRECT SUN

A = AIR MASS

C = CONTINENTALITY POSITION ON A CONTINENT BIG WATER MODERATES TEMPERATURE

E = ELEVATION HIGHER ELEVATION = LOWER TEMPERATURE LOWER ELEVATION = HIGHER TEMPERATURE

M = MOUNTAIN BARRIERS OROGRAPHIC EFFECT

O = OCEAN CURRENTS

P = PRESSURE CELLS AIR ALWAYS FLOWS FROM HIGH TO LOW PRESSURE

S = STORMS
