Question

How does latitude and altitude affect the climate of a place?

Answer 1

Latitude: As the earth is round, sunlight does not reach everywhere equally. The temperature decreases as we move from the equator to the poles. ... Pressure and wind system: The pressure and wind system of any area depend on the latitude and altitude of that place. Thus, it influences the temperature accordingly.

Answer 2

Altitude: for increase in height there is a decrease in temperature

Normal lapse rate +165m=-1degreeC
