There are three major climate zones on earth. These are the polar zone, temperate zone, and tropical zone. Latitude plays a huge role because the polar zones are higher latitudes while those zones extremely close to the middle of the earth is tropical.

Why do climate zones not line up with the lines of latitude?

Climate zones do not align perfectly with lines of latitude due to several factors, including ocean currents, altitude, and geographical features like mountains and valleys. These elements can influence temperature and precipitation patterns, creating microclimates that deviate from the expected climate based on latitude alone. Additionally, human activities and seasonal variations can further modify local climates, leading to discrepancies between climate zones and latitude.

What Determines The Three Main Types Of Climate Zone?

The three main types of climate zones (tropical, temperate, polar) are determined by factors such as latitude, proximity to bodies of water, and elevation. Regions near the equator typically have a tropical climate, while those at mid-latitudes experience temperate climates, and areas near the poles have polar climates due to the Earth's curvature and amount of solar radiation received.
