The sea being liquid is less dense than land (solid). The sea therefore heats to a greater depth, but the depth means that in summer the sea takes longer to heat up than the land. Once it is warmed up however, it retains the heat for a lot longer, and takes longer to cool down in Winter. This means the further away from the sea you are, the warmer the summers you'll have, but the cooler the winters you'll have. And by the same token as above the nearer the sea the less likely you are to be freezing in winter & baking in summer, the climate is more Equable.

How does altitude distance from the ocean amount of sunlight distance from the equator and ocean currents affect this climate?

Altitude affects climate by causing cooler temperatures due to lower air pressure. Distance from the ocean impacts climate by influencing temperature and humidity levels, with coastal areas having milder climates. Amount of sunlight affects climate by determining temperature and seasonality. Distance from the equator influences climate by affecting temperature, with areas closer experiencing warmer temperatures. Ocean currents impact climate by transporting heat and moisture, affecting temperatures along coastlines.


What factor affects climate?

Factors effecting climate are: -latitude from the equator -distance from the ocean/sea/any other hydrological feature -surrounding natural features such as mountains or forests that can alter precipitation and weather - ocean currents -human activity such as pollution or 'urban jungles' where a regions climate can be artificially warmed up by the effects of concrete and decreased water runoff causeing increased precipitation


Which of the following is not a climate control latitude altitude distance from oceans distance from mountains?

Latitude is not a climate control factor. Climate is primarily influenced by latitude, altitude, distance from oceans, and distance from mountains.


What are four factors that affect temperature?

Four factors that determine the climate of an area are distance from the sea, ocean currents, direction of prevailing winds, and the relief of the area. The proximity to the equator also plays a role in the climate of an area.


What type of climate is experienced in areas adjacent to sea?
