Why do later water bodies heat and cool more slowly than land masses?
it cools down beacuse the latitude if the water is closer to
What are bodies of land and bodies of water on earth called?
Bodies of land: * Continents * Islands Bodies of water: * Oceans * Seas * Lakes * Rivers
How is distance from large bodies of water can afeect the temperature of nearby land areas?
Water is generally slower than most solids to absorb or give up heat enery resulting a slower change of temperature. Thus large bodies of water tend moderate temperature of land masses. It follows that this effect will be less significant the further the land mass is from large bodies of water as the moderating effects will be reduced by heat transfer by areas of land closer to water and thus reduce the moderating effects of transfer of the medium through which it is carried, the air that travels from water to land.
How are earth's largest bodies of water and great areas of land divided?
bodies of water?
Bodies of water have a moderating effect on land temperature?
Bodies of water have a moderating effect on land temperatures because in a moderate climate, such as Vancouver, Canada, the air from the oceans in the summertime is cooler and blows onto the adjacent land, whereas in the wintertime, the air masses from the warmer waters blows onto the nearby land and causes the land to warm up. Although, for a continental climate, such as Winnipeg, Canada, the exact oppostie happens. The cold air from the oceans blows onto the nearby land and thus makes everything cooler, and in the summer, the warmer air masses blows onto the land and makes everything warmer. This is also considered an extreme climate. Therefore, bodies of water regulate temperatures of the nearby land, and in cases of El Nino, have affects temperatures on a global scale.
Distinguish between water bodies and land masses?
Water bodies are liquid and land masses are solid.
What is an isthumus?

Asia, and australlia...... Indian ocean and pacific ocean are bodies of water :d
Why does water bodies don't get as hot or cold as land masses?
They take longer to get hotter and take longer to get cooler.
What bodies of water lie between Florida and England?
The Atlantic Ocean lies between those land masses.
Why do later water bodies heat and cool more slowly than land masses?

What influences climate?
elevation, distance from the equator, and nearness to large bodies of water. Prevailing winds, nearness to land masses.
What is the study ofgeography?
It is the study of the Earth, its land masses, oceans, rivers, lakes, and national boundaries.
