1. LACEMOPS FACTORS AFFECTING CLIMATE

2. L = LATITUDE LOWER LATITUDES RECEIVE MORE DIRECT SUN

3. A = AIR MASS

4. C = CONTINENTALITY POSITION ON A CONTINENT BIG WATER MODERATES TEMPERATURE

5. E = ELEVATION HIGHER ELEVATION = LOWER TEMPERATURE LOWER ELEVATION = HIGHER TEMPERATURE

6. M = MOUNTAIN BARRIERS OROGRAPHIC EFFECT

7. O = OCEAN CURRENTS

8. P = PRESSURE CELLS AIR ALWAYS FLOWS FROM HIGH TO LOW PRESSURE

9. S = STORMS
