Detailed explanation-1: -The distance from the equator affects the climate of a place. At the poles, energy from the sun reaches the Earth’s surface at lower angles and passes through a thicker layer of atmosphere than at the equator. This means the climate is cooler further from the Equator.
Detailed explanation-2: -Atmospheric Circulation. The sun’s rays provide both light and heat to Earth, and regions that receive greater exposure warm to a greater extent. Ocean Currents. Global Climate. Biogeography.
Detailed explanation-3: -Latitude is the distance north or south of the Equator. It is measured in degrees, from 0 to 90. At the Equator, the Sun s rays are most direct. At higher latitudes, the Sun s rays are less direct. At the poles, the Sun s rays are least direct. Much of the area is covered with ice and snow. More items •07-May-2021
