Question

How does the altitude influence climate

Answer 1

Effects of Altitude on Climate and Vegetation. For each 1,000 foot rise in altitude there is a 4°F drop in temperature. For example, if at sea level the average temperature is 75°F, at 10,000 feet the average temperature would be only 35°F.

Effects

Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation:

Altitude and Mountain Ranges. Air pressure and air temperature decrease with altitude. At higher altitudes, the air is less dense and air molecules are more spread out and less likely to collide. A location in the mountains has lower average temperatures than one at the base of the mountains.
