What is equable climate?
Equable Climate is that type of climate when the temperature of day and night is almost same.it is experienced in the places near the sea.
How much does the temperature drop at night?
The temperature does change at night but it depends where you are.
A desert shows much wider daily temperature variation than a moist environment?
Water is a conductor of heat, therefore when moist environments are under sunlight during they day they retain some of the heat at night, whereas a desert does not.
If the earth did not have an atmosphere temperature extremes between day and night?

To answer that we need to know the location of the place where you want to know the summer night temperature. Different places have different temperatures.
What do Inland Taipans do at night?

What causes annual temperature variations for a planet?
The primary cause of annual temperature variation is axial tilt. Axial tilt results in seasonal day length variation. The longer the night, the more daytime heat is radiated back into space. A much smaller, secondary cause would be orbital eccentricity.
If the Poles have the greatest variation in the length of day and night where is the least variation?
tropic of cancer
Why does the ocean temperature water vary?
Oceans And Seas absorbs temperature during in the day time while in the night time releases temperature to surroundings so temperature variation is less but on the land surface temterature variation is more day time and night time
What causes temperature change during day and night?
The lack of atmosphere on the moon keeps it from being able to hold heat. Therefore because the moon does not rotate the dark side is always colder than that in sunlight.
Temperature of the moon?
The temperature on the moon varies from -233 Celsius (-387 Fahrenheit) at night to 123 Celsius (253 Fahrenheit) during the day. Because the moon has no atmosphere to block some of the sun's rays or to help trap heat, its temperature varies greatly between day and night.
Why does coastal regions experience less fluctuation in temperature from day to night than inland regions?
The air near wtaer takes much longer to heat up/cool down then regular water.
What is equable climate?
Equable Climate is that type of climate when the temperature of day and night is almost same.it is experienced in the places near the sea.
What planet has the most extreme temperature variation?
Mercury. The side facing the sun heats up to 450 degrees C. At night, the side facing away from the sin is -170 degrees C
What is the difference in temperature on a clear night and cloudy night?
the difference there is that in a clear night night the temperature is cool y in a cloudy night it is somehow warm
What is the night temperature at in the Chihuahuan Desert?
