it takes the earth 24hrs to rotate on its axis and 365 days to rotate around the sun. So the earth has been divided into a 24 hour time zone starting at the prime meridian which is 0 degrees longitude/latitude. Each 15' of longitude is allocated 1 hour in time. Travelling clockwise the time zones are divided in periods of three hours. So when you reach the next time zone after the Prime Meridian there is a three hour difference. For example Sydney at 6pm it is 3pm in Perth.
Position based climate on the Earth is caused by the Angle of tilt of the Earth's Axis. Your position based on LATITUDE (North/South relationship to the Equator) affects the angle at which the Sun's rays strike you. The closer you are to the Equator (from either the North or South), the more direct the Sun's rays are, and the warmer you are relative to the seasons.
Given that relationship, a change in Longitude, your East/West location, does not effect the angle of the Sun's rays as long as your Latitude remains the same. So, moving along a fixed Latitude line does not effect how much the Sun warms you.
There will be OTHER factors that will effect climate no matter where you are, such as proximity to mountains and large bodies of water, your elevation, prevailing winds, etc.
Longitude itself has little impact on your climate.
All other things being equal, the higher the latitude, the colder it will be. But all other things are never equal. In the mid-1800's, there were advertisements in Europe offering land in the Dakotas, saying that the latitude of the Dakotas was lower than that of Germany. This was true, but irrelevant. The Dakota territories - now North Dakota and South Dakota - are much colder than the equivalent latitudes in Europe.
The nearness of the oceans, and the ocean currents, are a much stronger influence on climate. England is a higher latitude than New England - but England is warmer, because of the warm Gulf Stream current.
It gives areas cordinates ,and can tell you how far things are from the north and the south pole.
Longitude in itself is a purely human concept and has no direct influence over the climate.
It has no effect on life whatsoever. Life began, evolved, and flourished
for many millions of years before that meridian was ever conceived of.
Cold.
Latitude is definitely conected with temperature and as a result climate. Longitude as such is not.
Latitude
it affect the river because of the transition of the earth's rotational axis and the planets also have a big affect to the rivers future.
It is in a Temperate climat zone becaus of its Longitude and Latitude.
cuz it duz
yes

latitude, elevation, anegetation affect climate
Latitude and longitude have an influence of climate because of wind direction. Longitudinal climates differ because land formation in this direction tends to be more mountainous.
It affects the climate because the climate zone is determined by the line of latitude.
yes
It is in a Temperate climat zone becaus of its Longitude and Latitude.
today class, we are going to discuss latitude and longitude, and why the equator has a different climate and why.
the temperate zone.
