They are warmer because they are farther away from the atmosphere, which is colder. That is why it is SO cold on planes.

Why do higher latitudes receive less solar radiation than lower latitudes?
high latitudes are blocked by clouds and lower latitude are not blocked by anything
when you are at lower latitudes are you at a higher location or lower?

What latitudes cause warm air masses in summer and cold ones in winter?
Low latitudes
What is the difference between a tropical and polar air mass?
A tropical air mass originates in the lower latitudes (closer to the equator) and is generally warm. A polar air mass originates in the higher latitudes (closer to one of the poles) and is generally cold.
Why do hurricanes happen between tropical latitudes and not an higher latitude?
Hurricanes depend on very warm ocean water to sustain themselves. The waters of higher latitudes are not warm enough.
Why soil degradation is lower in northern latitudes?
because you dind't study before... so you can't find the answer now!
Thermoclines in the ocean are best developed at?
lower latitudes
Cold fronts and warm fronts in the middle latitudes are often associated with what?
Cold fronts and warm fronts in the middle latitudes are often associated with low pressure. It is also associated with a middle latitude cyclone.
Is it true that tropical wet climates are found primarily in the middle latitudes?
No. Tropical wet climates are associated with the lower latitudes. The middle latitudes are associated with temperate climates.
Why is it warmer before it rains?
There are a couple explanations for this. First, warm, moist air in the lower part of the atmosphere tends to create instability, which can lead to thunderstorms. Second, due to the mechanics of mid-latitude storm systems, cold fronts are often preceded by a jet of wind that draws warm air from the lower latitudes.
What are causes of deserts in both the lower and middle latitudes?
dryness
