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.

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.


How can climate affect transportation?

distance from the sea affect the amount of precipitation the region gets,as well as its temperatures.most regions moisture comes from the Atlantic ocean. but the air coming from the ocean loses its moisture as it travels farther and farther inland.distance from the seas also result in extreme temperatures.


What are some Factors that affect the climate of Atlantic Maritime?

latitude and longitude altitude ((height in elevation)) winds distance from the sea/ocean ((land heats up and cools quicker than the sea does)) and Aspect ((places{slopes} facing the sun will be warmer))


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.


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.

How does the distance from the sea control the climate of places?

it matters beacause the farther it is the colder it is and closer it is the hotter it is.


How does altitude and distance from large bodies of water and ocean affect the climate?

Altitude makes your climate colder.Distance from the sea makes your climate warmer at the start of summer and cooler at the end (water warms more slowly than land, but also retains the heat longer).


How does climate change affect sea ice?

climate change affects the sea ice because if it is too hot the ice melts, and if it is too cold it will freeze.

It doesn't. It does however affect ones climate. The sea can cause a mist that is called sea mist. It is wet and cold and can reach miles and miles out on land.

How does the 5 factors affect the British climate?

The five main factors affecting the British climate are latitude, distance from the sea, ocean currents, prevailing wind direction, and relief (topography). The latitude of Britain results in mild temperatures, while the surrounding sea influences the climate by moderating temperature fluctuations. Ocean currents also play a role in regulating temperatures, while prevailing winds bring moisture and affect weather patterns. Relief or topography influences local climate variations, such as the rain shadow effect.
