Yes, Earth has many temperatures fluctuating due to factors such as latitude, elevation, and seasons. Climate, however, refers to the long-term patterns of temperature, precipitation, and other weather elements in a specific region, giving rise to classifications like tropical, temperate, and polar climates.
Tropical climate: Characterized by warm temperatures year-round and high levels of rainfall. Temperate climate: Marked by moderate temperatures and distinct seasons, including warm summers and cool winters. Arid climate: Known for low precipitation levels and high temperatures, resulting in dry conditions. Polar climate: Defined by cold temperatures throughout the year, with ice and snow covering the landscape for much of the time.
The Climate in the Deciduous Forest is greatly affected by the tilt of the earth's axis. As our planet revolves around the sun, its axis stays tilted, causing the four seasons of the deciduous forest. During the spring and summer months, the deciduous forest ranges in temperatures from cool to warm. In the fall and winter, the forests will get very cold. These changes of the season not only affect the temperature in the forest but also alter the form of precipitation it receives. Actually the tilt of the Earth affects ALL seasonal climate changes on the Earth, not just the forests.
A temperate climate typically experiences summers that are cool to warm and winters that are slightly cooler. This type of climate is characterized by mild temperatures year-round with distinct seasons. Examples include areas like the Mediterranean region or the Pacific Northwest in the United States.
Global warming causes climate change. We now use the term climate change because it deals with all the many changes. Global warming is still happening and the warming is putting more energy into the atmosphere. This extra energy is changing the climate.

Yes, Earth experiences a wide range of temperatures due to variations in geographic location, altitude, and time of year. However, climate refers to the long-term average of weather patterns in a specific region, encompassing factors such as temperature, humidity, and precipitation. While there are many local climates across the planet, they collectively contribute to the overall climate system of Earth. Thus, Earth has diverse temperatures but multiple distinct climates.
Every place on Earth has a climate.
Antarctica is the continent that only has one climate, which is a polar climate characterized by extreme cold temperatures and very little precipitation.
The only climate not found in the continental US is the polar ice cap climate. This climate is characterized by extremely cold temperatures and year-round ice cover, which is not present in any part of the contiguous United States.
Tropical climate is found only near the Equator. This climate is characterized by warm temperatures year-round, high humidity, and abundant rainfall. It is typically found within about 25 degrees latitude of the Equator.
It has different gravity and climate than other planets.
The Tundra climate region is only found in the Northern Hemisphere. It is characterized by cold temperatures, low precipitation, and a short growing season, resulting in a landscape of permafrost and sparse vegetation.

Many elements only form through high temperatures and pressures... both of which are present int the Sun - but not in the Earth's atmosphere.
The term "climate change" encompasses a broader range of changes in the Earth's climate system, including shifts in temperature, precipitation patterns, and extreme weather events. While "global warming" specifically refers to the increase in average global temperatures due to greenhouse gas emissions, "climate change" captures the full spectrum of environmental impacts resulting from this warming. This terminology is used to highlight the complex and multifaceted nature of the issue, which includes not only rising temperatures but also changes in ecosystems and weather patterns.
