Answer:

Locations at a higher altitude have colder temperatures.

Explanation:

Colder temperatures are found in places that are higher in height.Every 100 meters of height usually results in a 1°C drop in temperature.Proximity to the ocean - Oceans warm up and cool down considerably more slowly than land.The temperature drops as we ascend to higher altitudes from the earth's surface.Wind system and pressure:Any location's latitude and altitude affect its climate and wind patterns.

Thus, it makes the temperature accordingly. A place's temperature drops as it is elevated above the surface of the earth.

Since the earth's surface is the direct source of atmospheric heat, the temperature decreases as we climb higher into the atmosphere.
