altitude is your elevation. latitude is your distance north or south in comparison to the equator.
What else can I help you with?
Which latitude does precipation form?
Precipitation forms at all latitudes (and altitudes).
Amritsar and Shimla have the same latitudes but Shimla is more cooler than Amritsar because?
because they both have different altitudes...
Where does glaciation form?
Glaciation may form anywhere on Earth. However, it is most common in higher latitudes and on land where ice is more readily formed. Alpine glaciers occur at high altitudes (e.g. mountain peaks) and are common at all latitudes.
Why do temperatures differ at different lattitudes?
Mainly because regions at higher latitudes receive less sunlight.
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.
What causes no wind on the horse latitudes?
The horse latitudes experience little to no wind due to the subtropical high-pressure systems present in these regions. These high-pressure systems create a stable atmosphere with air descending from higher altitudes, inhibiting the formation of strong winds. This phenomenon is further compounded by the Earth's rotation which deflects wind patterns away from these latitudes.
What sphere in sky aeroplanes travels?
Stratosphere Commercial airliners typically cruise at altitudes of 9-12 km (30,000-39,000 ft) in temperate latitudes (in the lower reaches of the stratosphere)
How is rain formed in the low latitudes?
In low latitudes, rain is formed through the process of evaporation, condensation, and precipitation. Warm air rises near the equator, carrying moisture with it. As the air cools at higher altitudes, the moisture condenses into water droplets, forming clouds. When the droplets become too heavy, they fall as rain.
What is a climatic region that is characterized by cold temperatures and low vegetation?
Tundra. It is a region found in high latitudes or high altitudes where the cold temperatures inhibit tree growth, resulting in a landscape dominated by low vegetation such as mosses, lichens, and shrubs.
Where do coniferous forest grow?
Where There is snow.
How many latitudes are there in total?
there are 181 latitudes.90 latitudes above equator+90 latitudes below the equator +equator.90+90+1=181
Why do upper-level winds in the middle-latitudes blow from the west?
Upper-level winds in the middle-latitudes blow from the west due to the combination of the Coriolis effect and pressure gradients. The Coriolis effect causes winds to deflect to the right in the Northern Hemisphere, which, combined with pressure gradients created by the temperature difference between the equator and poles, results in westerly winds at the upper levels of the atmosphere.
