Which degrees mark the northern latitudes?
Northern latitudes are the latitudes between zero and 90° North ... that is, everything between the equator and the north pole, the region referred to as the "northern Hemisphere".
How do you call the region that lies on the latitudes between equator and polar region?
The region between the equator and the north pole is called the "northern Hemisphere". The region between the equator and the south pole is called the "southern Hemisphere". The two of them put together cover the whole earth.
Why are the hottest climates near the equator?
This region receives the most nearly perpendicular insolation.
The equatorial doldrums are located at what latitude?
The doldrums are at the equator. They are just like the horse latitudes; they're a calm region.
How does climate affect a region?
Depending on where you are located on earth you will have various climates; for example if you are located near the equator, your climate is much warmer than those who live father away from it.
Do the the temperates climates occur in the middle latitudes?
Temperate climates occur in the middle latitudes, the region halfway between the equator and the poles.
The greatest variety of climates is found in what region of the earth?
High latitudes .

Does warm air sink at the horse latitudes?
Hot air on the equator divides equally and flows up to 30 Deg. North and South before it sinks in the region called horse latitudes.
The equatorial doldrums are located at what latitude?
The doldrums are at the equator. They are just like the horse latitudes; they're a calm region.
What characterizes climate in middle latitudes?
low rates of evaporation(novanet/Gradpoint)
Can a region at low latitudes have Snow?
No
What is the difference between doldrums and horse and latitudes?
Doldrums are the imaginary regions extending up to 15 Deg Northward and 10 Deg Southward from the Equator. The Equator is 0 Deg Latitude. Hence the Doldrum region is commonly referred to as the region between 15 Deg North & 10 Deg South Latitudes. Doldrums are regions of Low Pressure, as they are more close to the Equator, where the Sun's vertical rays fall directly. Hence the air envelope around the Equator gets heated and rises vertically upwards (air current), there by creating a Low pressure region around the Equator, extending up to the Doldrums.Horse Latitudes are imaginary regions on 30 Deg North & 30 Deg South Latitudes. These are regions of High Pressures, and hence also called Sub-Tropical High Pressure Belts. It got the name "Horse" latitudes because, the sailors in ancient times (when boats were of the Mast-type, which gets carried along the wind direction) emptied the Horses they were carrying on board to the sea, so as to reduce the weight of the vessel and to keep it afloat )along the direction of the Trade winds). The winds blowing in the region between the Horse latitude & the Doldrum is called Trade Winds.
How do the highland climates differ from the climates of the region that surround them?
Different
