Presentation transcript:

Latitude and Longitude… and Climate Objective: Identify characteristics of the physical world and how it affects cultural patterns

Seasons Caused by earth’s tilt and revolution around sun Earth tilted at 23.5 degrees in relation to sun

Equinox Twice a year, Mar 21/Sept 23 Days and nights all over the world are equal in length

Solstice Summer-Longest Day of Year Winter-Shortest Day of Year

Weather vs. Climate Weather-condition of atmosphere at a particular location and time Climate-weather conditions at a particular location over a long period of time

Climate-Zones of Latitude Low/Tropical-Tropic of Cancer to Tropic of Capricorn, hot all year long, rainy or dry Middle/Temperate-between tropics and polar regions, climate varies greatly High/Polar- encircle North and South Poles, cold all year long

Discussion What zone do most people live in? Why? Which zone experiences the greatest change of daylight hours? Why? Which zone experiences the least change of daylight hours? Why? Which zone experiences the greatest seasonal variation in temperature? Why?
