What is climate? What is weather? Climate is the measurement of a place’s temperature, precipitation, wind, and other weather elements over A LONG PERIOD OF TIME. Weather is the measurement of a place’s temperature, precipitation, wind, and other weather elements AT THE PRESENT TIME.

Climate What THREE characteristics make up a place’s climate? –A. Temperature –B. Precipitation (rain, snow, etc.) –C. Seasons (hot/cold, wet/dry, etc.) What FIVE factors influence a place’s climate? A. Latitude B. Winds C. Elevation D. Ocean Currents E. Bodies of Water

Low Middle High

Climate What are the characteristics of high latitudes (60º to 90º)? –Sub-arctic, taiga, tundra, icecap What are the characteristics of middle latitudes (23.5º to 60º)? –Semiarid (grasslands), arid (deserts), Mediterranean climates (warm dry summers), humid continental, deciduous/coniferous forests What are the characteristics of low latitudes (0º to 23.5º)? –Tropical, rainforests, arid (deserts), semiarid (grasslands), highlands

Climate Parts of Life Climate Effects: A. Clothing B. Housing C. Crops D. Natural Hazards

Weather Examples of Weather Phenomena: –Monsoons in South and Southeast Asia –Typhoons in the South Pacific Ocean –Hurricanes in the Atlantic Ocean –Tornadoes in the United States
