Factors affecting climate: LOWERN
Question and answers rated A+
What does lowern stand for? - correct answer ✔Latitude
Ocean Currents
Wind/air pressure
Elevation
Relief precipitation
Near water
How does latitude affect climate? - correct answer ✔The closer you are to
the equator, the hotter the climate.
How do ocean currents affect climate? - correct answer ✔warm currents will
warm nearby land whereas cold currents will cool it. When two ocean currents
meet it is damp and foggy.
How does wind/air pressure affect climate? - correct answer ✔Air Masses
with the word cool in them cool the climate. Air Masses with the word warm
warm the climate. Masses with the word continental are drier. Masses with the
word maritime are more moist.
How does elevation affect climate? - correct answer ✔High elevations mean
a colder drier climate with thinner air (less pressure). Low elevations mean a
warmer Moree humid climate with thicker air (more pressure).
How does relief precipitation affect climate? - correct answer ✔Precipitation
clouds get "stuck" on a mountain which causes a rainy side and a dry side of
a mountain.
