Explanation:

Altitude or height above sea level - Locations at a higher altitude have colder temperatures. Temperature usually decreases by 1°C for every 100 metres in altitude. 4. ... This means that coastal locations tend to be cooler in summer and warmer in winter than places inland at the same latitude and altitude.

Climate can be affected by mountains. Mountains receive more rainfall than low lying areas because as air is forced over the higher ground it cools, causing moist air to condense and fall out as rainfall. ... This happens because as altitude increases, air becomes thinner and is less able to absorb and retain heat.
