-- the distance from the equator
-- the distances from the north and south poles
-- the speed of the ground toward the east as the Earth rotates
-- on the average, the apparent local acceleration of gravity
-- the total distance around the Earth traveled in one day
-- the position of the celestial poles in the sky
-- the paths of the stars during the night
-- the total portion of all the stars and constellations that's visible in a night or a year
-- the highest altitude in the sky that the Sun ever reaches during the year
-- the highest altitude in the sky that the moon ever reaches
-- the distance that one degree of longitude covers on the ground from your latitude
-- the amount of the total night sky that never sets as seen from your latitude
-- the length of the longest day of the year
-- the length of the shortest day of the year
-- the difference between them
-- the broad, very-long-term-average climate, especially the temperature, although
there are great differences in climates even at the same latitude
-- my desire to live at that latitude (directly proportional)
Sharon is a big place, covering a range of different latitudes. The center of the intersection of E. State and S. Stambaugh is located at 41.23302 degrees north latitude. If you step to the curb there, or go anywhere else in town, the latitude changes.
Active region number 7996 is a sunspot group, which does not have a fixed latitude and longitude as it moves across the sun's surface due to its rotation. As a result, its position in terms of latitude and longitude changes constantly.
Every time you move north or south, even an inch or less, your latitude changes, and Rochester is a big place. Abbott's historic frozen custard stand at Lake Ave. and Beach Ave. is at latitude 43.2581° N. The intersection of Norton St. and Clinton Ave ... near where my dad's plant stood until he and his brother closed it and retired ... is at latitude 43.1864° N. The intersection of Main St. and Clinton Ave., at the old site of Sibley's and McCurdy's, is at latitude 43.1572° N. The little island in the middle of Brighton's Twelve Corners is centered at latitude 43.1266° N. The point on the dome of the Rush Rhees library at the U of R is at latitude 43.1285° N. Westfall Rd. crosses Clover St. at latitude 43.1167° N. (I know, that's Brighton; but where would Brighton be without Rochester ! ?) I was born in the hospital at latitude 43.1470° N ... no longer a hospital ... and lived at latitude 43.1824° N during most of the school years. Rochester is a big place, and every time you take a step north or south, your latitude changes.
On my map, the summit ... a spot where the Mweka Trail changes direction abruptly ... appears to be located at 3.0763° south latitude 37.3523° east longitude. Of course, any other point on or around the mountain has different coordinates.
The equator is zero latitude.
Lines of Latitude, as in "changes in latitude, changes in attitude."
The lines of latitude are the North and South lines on the globe. They measure the time changes there are in areas.
It changes as you walk around.
Climate regions vary with changes in elevation and latitude. As altitude increases, temperature generally decreases, which can result in different climate zones within a relatively small area. Additionally, elevation can also influence precipitation patterns due to changes in air pressure and the formation of rain shadows.
That varies, depending on the latitude (i.e., where you live) and the time of year.

The planet Saturn has four season, however, the temperatures for the seasons changes are from the surface temperature that changes little with the latitude. The warmth of the temperatures are not by the sun, but by the warmth of the planet.
Active region number 7996 is a sunspot group, which does not have a fixed latitude and longitude as it moves across the sun's surface due to its rotation. As a result, its position in terms of latitude and longitude changes constantly.
The position of the Tropic of Cancer never changes; it is the line at 23.5° north latitude.
