|
||||
| show | 1. The atmosphere acts like a blanket. The higher you go the smaller the blanket. 2. High mountains are windier leading to a wind chill factor.

🗑
|
||||
| show | The higher the Latitude the lower the temperature because the Sunlight is spread over a larger area.

|
||||
| How do global wind patterns effect climate? | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | Northerly air masses are cooler because they come from colder climates.
🗑
|
||||
| show | Southerly air masses are warm because they come from warmer lower latitudes.

|
||||
| show | No. Direct sun rays hit the equator More Heat Slanted sun rays hit the poles Less Heat
