Finish Yesterday’s Climate Graph Lab • Complete the graphs • Answer all questions • Make sure to answer the last question…question 9…in three thorough sentences on another sheet of paper

Factors Affecting Climate 4. Latitude • Affected by Earth’s axis tilt which creates seasons • Close to equator = more direct intense sunlight • Poles = less direct diffused sunlight • About 12 hour days around equator • Variable as you get away from the equator

Latitude Affects Climate • • As. As welatitude move increases farther • Latitudes near thestart from thefarther, equator even we equator receive temperatures start to move closer to the to getangle, colderdirect high poles sunlight, • • The At temperate 66. 5 they º northare and zones located southare of the equator heated more and between 23. 5ºzones and lie the polar have warmer 66. 5 º latitude Solar energy hits the climates polar zones at a low • Temperate zones • These latitudes are angle (less direct), have climates that known as the spreading the same can be both warm amount of energy and coldand —or tropics lie moderate year over a larger area between 0º and • round Alsolatitude polar ice reflects 23. 5º • Wesome live in the solar of this • The tropics temperate zone— energy (radiation) Experience warm winters • cold Polar zonesand are cold climates year warm summers year round 90 o 66. 5 o 23. 5 o 0 o 23. 5 o 66. 5 o 90 o

Continental Climates • Cities which are located in the middle of continents experience freezing winters and hot summers • Therefore, cities like Chicago experience dramatic temperature fluctuations over the coarse of a year: Hot summers and Cold winters

Climate Classification • How should we classify climates? • As it turns out, climates are classified by temperature and precipitation (how hot or wet a place is) • There are 5 major climate types: • Climate types include: Tropical Climates, Temperate or Moderate Climates, Arid Dry Climates, Continental Climates, and Polar Climates
