In general, the climatic zone is determined by the latitude. The rule is that the farthest you go from the equator (the largest the latitude) the colder it gets. The rainfall near the equator is largest. In the subtropical zones the rainfall is smaller. In the intermediate zones the rainfall is large again. Please see the links for more details.

Why latitude is the most important factor affecting global climates?

Latitude is the most important factor affecting global climates because it determines the angle at which the sun's rays strike the Earth, influencing the amount of solar energy received. This affects temperature, with areas closer to the equator receiving more direct sunlight and experiencing warmer climates. In contrast, regions closer to the poles receive less direct sunlight and have cooler climates.
