How do large bodies of water and mountains affect climate?
duller
What effect do large bodies of water have on climate?
The effects large bodies of water have on climate can range from the creation of warm, tropical climes to cold, barren ones. Large bodies of water take longer to heat up, making their surrounding areas tend to be cooler in summer and warmer in winter.
Which of the following properties of water is most important to Earth's climate?
Large bodies of water have the ability to store great amounts of heat
Is used to describe an inland climate that is remote from the moderating influences of large water bodies?
The phrase "inland climate" is generally used for this and accepted as such. An alternative phrase is "non-maritime climate".

An inland climate that is remote from the moderating influences of large water bodies?
Continental climate is found in areas without significant bodies of water. This causes these areas to experience large variances in temperature between summer and winter.
Is the climate of Hilo Hawaii affected by a large body of water?
Yes. And that large body of water would be the Pacific Ocean.
How can oceans and large lakes affect climate and weather?

water acts as a buffer, so it moderates the temperature
Two topographic features that causes variations in climate?

What factors play a large role in determining climate?
Global winds, insolation, large bodies of water and ocean currents.
How do large bodies of water influence climate?
Water has a large specific heat. That means that it takes more heat energy to change the temperature of water than it does to change the temp of land; thus places near large bodies of water are warmer in winter and cooler in summer.
What are the major climate zones of the earth?
Air, ocean water, altitude, large bodies of water, and the sun are climate zones that geographers often organize the earth with.
How do bodies of water affect temperature?
