The winds affect the climate because they create the way hot and cold air is moved around.. ... Wind currents can push warm or cold air in the direction of the currents.
3) Chile experience climatic diversity despite being a smaller size compare to Russia because of its geographical condition. Chile is situated in the borders of the Pacific Ocean in one side and the Andes Mountains on the other side. ... Northern Chile is hotter because of the dry Atacama Desert.
