Climates and Climate Graphs

Weather: the state of the atmosphere at a given time and place

Climate: The usual pattern of weather in a particular place

Climate regions are determined by temperature and precipitation.

Factors which affect climate:

# 1 Elevation: Temperature decreases with elevation. 3.5 degrees with each 1,000 feet

Mount Everest 29,028 feet

#2 Oceans: Your distance from oceans. Oceans regulate temperature.

# 3 Ocean currents

#4 Latitude: Your proximity to the equator affects climate.
