What is the greatest factor that determines climate in any given location?
latitude
Which factor is most important in determening climate?
Determining climate is based on a lot of things, but the most important is latitude. As you increase in latitude, the colder the climate typically gets. For example, the equator (lowest latitude) is hot, while the upper regions of Earth are colder.
The climate of a given area is influenced by its location on the Earth. Average yearly temperatures generally decrease as?
latitude increases
When given latitude and longitude coordinates which is given first?
Yeahh. You always do latitude, then longitude. =)
Is Longitude is an important factor in determining climate of a place?
Longitude doesn't affect an area's climate because the Earth only wobbles on its axis in a vertical fashion. Besides that fact, the Earth is constantly spinning which ensures that all longitudes of the Earth receives as much sunlight and strength of sunlight as the other longitudes that lie at that latitude. While climates do vary from one specific longitude to another this is because of other factors, such as weather patterns, and not because of the longitude itself

What is the greatest factor that determines climate in any given location?
latitude
Does not affect climate in a given area?
Longitudes do not affect the climate of an area but instead they cause differences in time. Latitudes on the other hand affect climate.
Which of these factors does not affect climate in a given area?
Longitude

Is latitude or longitude more important in determining the type of biome in a given area?
The latitude is the measure of an areas distance from the sun while the longitude is the measure of the angular distance on earth's surface. The latitude measures the climate and therefore the type of biome in a given area.
The climate of a given area is influenced by its location on the Earth. Average yearly temperatures generally decrease as?
latitude increases
Which factors determine the rate at which solar energy is received by a given area of the Earths land surface?
The factors include, Reflectivity of the area, Topography, Climate, Cloud cover, Vegetation, and Latitude.
When given latitude and longitude coordinates which is given first?
Yeahh. You always do latitude, then longitude. =)
Which of these factors does not affect the climate in a given area?
Individual weather events, such as a storm, a cold winter or a hot summer do not effect climate in a given area. Climate is the statistics of weather, typically over a period of at least 30 years. Climate change is long term trends in climate and it is possible for short term changes to go in the opposite direction of the long term trend.
What would happen to Earth's climate if the tilt was 0º?
The two main factors would be that the seasons would not exist and the length of daylight and night time hours would not vary throughout the year at any given latitude. That the climate of any given latitude would change is inevitable with less variation throughout the year. The extent of the change is almost impossible to predict
If earths axis were not tilted could any area have both a hot summer and a cold winter?
If earth's axis were perpendicular to the plane of its orbit, there would be no summer or winter. The climate at any given latitude would be constant throughout the year.
