Latitude • Imaginary horizontal lines that run across the earth. • They measure degrees north and south of the equator. • They’re called parallels because they never touch.

Rule of thumb • As a general rule, the farther north or south you go from the equator, the colder the climate.

Longitude • Imaginary lines that run up and down the earth but they measure in degrees east and west from the Prime Meridian. • Also known as meridians

Important Lines of Longitude Prime Meridian • Most important line of longitude • Located at 0° longitude • Helps to separate the earth into the east & west hemispheres (halves) International Dateline • Located at 180° longintude • It is where the start of each new day begins

Rule of Thumb • Longitude lines have nothing to do with climate. • They are associated with time zones. About every 15° longitude is a new time zone.
