Ecosystems in that area COULD die out. With that if they had a food source in that ecosystem they would loose it which means that they would have to import it.
What are the factors influencing rural markets in India?
There are basically 6 factors affecting India's climate.1) LATITUDE - Due to the curvature of the Earth, the amount of solar energy received is different according to the latitudes.2) ALTITUDE - As we go higher, temperature generally decreases (From equator to poles) as the atmosphere becomes less dense.3) PRESSURE AND WIND SYSTEM - They depend on the latitude and altitude of a place, thus influencing the rainfall patterns.4) DISTANCE FROM SEA - The sea has a moderating effect on the climate. As distance from sea increases, this effect decreases and places experience extreme weather conditions (continentality).5) OCEAN CURRENTS - They affect the climate of the coastal areas with the onshore winds.6) RELIEF - High mountains act as barriers for cold/hot winds, may also cause precipitation if they are high enough and lie in the path of rain bearing winds. The leeward side of the mountains remains dry.There are basically 6 factors affecting India's climate.1) LATITUDE - Due to the curvature of the Earth, the amount of solar energy received is different according to the latitudes.2) ALTITUDE - As we go higher, temperature generally decreases (From equator to poles) as the atmosphere becomes less dense.3) PRESSURE AND WIND SYSTEM - They depend on the latitude and altitude of a place, thus influencing the rainfall patterns.4) DISTANCE FROM SEA - The sea has a moderating effect on the climate.

How does the latitude and altitude affect climate and vegetation in Europe?
Latitude and altitude can dramatically affect climate and vegetation. Climate and altitude both have an effect on temperature. This temperature is a big factor in what will grow and what will not.
What can affect climate?
latitude, elevation, anegetation affect climate
Does altitude and latitude affect the desert?
Yes it does. The higher the altitude, the cooler the temperature in general.
Does altitude affect polar climate?
yes
How do latitude and altitude affect the plants that grow in an area?
Latitude and altitude affect the plants that grow in an area by affecting the temperatures there. The closer the latitude is to the poles, the colder the weather. The higher the altitude, the colder the weather. This means that plants that will grow in warm areas will not do well at higher latitudes or altitudes.
How does latitude affect the climate of various region of the earth?
It affects the climate because the climate zone is determined by the line of latitude.
Does latitude affect tropical climate?
yes
How does latitude and altitude affect the climate of the desert?
Not all deserts are hot. Compare the Sahara with the Gobi. The Sahara is hot and dry and also is located near the equator, with an altitude of about 600m. The Gobi is much further north, with an altitude of about 1520 m. The Gobi is COLD and dry.
Has a direct affect on precipitation and climate?
Latitude, altitude, side of the continent you are on, solar radiation, greenhouse gasses - your question is too vague AND not properly formulated as a question to elicit a focused answer.
What are four factors that affect temperature?
Four factors that determine the climate of an area are distance from the sea, ocean currents, direction of prevailing winds, and the relief of the area. The proximity to the equator also plays a role in the climate of an area.
