Much of Europe enjoys a temperate climate largely due to the influence of the North Atlantic Drift, an extension of the Gulf Stream. This warm ocean current moderates temperatures, preventing extreme cold in winter and excessive heat in summer. Additionally, the continent's geographical features, such as mountain ranges and proximity to the ocean, help distribute temperatures more evenly, contributing to its generally mild climate.

Why is winter solstice not the coldest time of year?
Earth is getting colder at that time. It does not immediately start getting warmer once the winter solstice is passed. It can be up to a month later, before it begins, so the month after a winter solstice is cold. For the summer, it is the same, in that the Earth keeps getting warmer for a time after the summer solstice, so the warmest temperatures are after the summer solstice, before the cooling process starts.
Do sea keeps coastal places warm in winter but cool in summer?
Yes, the sea has a moderating effect on coastal temperatures. In the winter, the sea releases stored heat, keeping coastal areas warmer. In the summer, the sea absorbs heat, resulting in cooler temperatures along the coast.
Why do houses lose more heat in winter than summer?
In the tropics, most places only have two main seasons. Wet and dry, both of which can be extremely hot, so more often than not "winter" is not a problem. Many houses are elevated with lots of windows and fans, usually made of wood and steel, as concrete and brick can get very hot, although the southern style is becoming more popular and so they have thick insulation in the ceiling. Some houses use whirly birds, device hat releases hot air from the rof, cooling the home. Of course, this is from my Northern Australian experience, so it might not be the same as people from LEDC's.
Why do you feel less tired during the spring daylight saving?
During winter you got less daylight time, and naturally the body is preparing to wind down after sun goes down and not to mention more activities in the summer, which is part of what keeps you awake and less tired, but in winter people are away or inside more relaxing and not working the body as long as in the summer, therefore seems reasonable that the body doesn't have the excitement boosts of energy, also vitamin c decreases in winter which can be a factor too.
What does it mean to be a periennial plant?
Perennial plants are plants who's life duration spans more than one growing season. For example most trees and shrubs are perennial as they live for a number of years (seasons), even into the hundreds of years. By contrast annual plants (also called seasonals) complete their entire life cycle in one season (summer, winter, spring or autumn); and bi-annual plants within two growing seasons.

How those the ocean keep the temperature mild in both summer and winter?
The ocean keeps the temperature mild in summer and winter by, in summer, extracting heat from the air to warm up the waters temperature, then in winter, the heat radiates off the ocean. By the end of winter, the water is colder from the cold air, and radiates it off in summer. Hope that helped.

Why do mud houses with thatched roofs keep the house cool in summers and warm in winter?
Mud has high thermal mass properties, meaning it can absorb and release heat slowly. Thatched roofs provide insulation, keeping heat out in summer and trapping heat inside in winter. Together, these materials help regulate the temperature inside the house, keeping it cool in summer and warm in winter.
