4. How do the following affect the climate?

(a) Distance from equator.

(b) Altitude/Height of a place.

(c) Distance from sea.

Distance from equator:

The distance from the equator affects the climate of a place. At the poles, energy from the sun reaches the Earth's surface at lower angles and passes through a thicker layer of atmosphere than at the equator. This means the climate is cooler further from the Equator. The poles also experience the greatest difference between summer and winter day lengths: in the summer there is a period when the sun does not set at the poles; conversely the poles also experience a period of total darkness during winter. In contrast, daylength varies little at the equator.

Altitude/Height of a place:

The altitude effects the climate of the place by determining the height of that place. Altitude describes how high a certain point is located above the sea level or the ground level. Altitude plays a significant role in climate by providing hot, cold and humid in a certain place. The higher the altitude cold the temperature of that place.

Distance from sea:

The sea affects the climate of a place. Coastal areas are cooler and wetter than inland areas. Clouds form when warm air from inland areas meets cool air from the sea. The centre of continents are subject to a large range of temperatures. In the summer, temperatures can be very hot and dry as moisture from the sea evaporates before it reaches the centre of the land mass.
