Climate Factors
The three factor that affect climate.
What are Elevation, Latitude, and nearness to water (Land and Ocean)?
This climate zone receives little precipitation, therefore has little vegetation.
What is arid?
This is the climate zone.
What is Arid?
In plastic paradise, we saw the impact of this on our planet.
What is plastic and plastic waste?

What is nearness to water?
This climate has moist winters and dry summers and a high percentage of sun.

What are Commerce City and Quito.
This climate's temperate remain constant all 12 months.
What is Tropical?
The difference between these two zones.
What is temperature range and precipitation? (Ice caps v Tundra)
Tree help reduce this.
