Introduction…What is Climate and Weather?
Introduction
Climate is the long-term pattern of weather in a
particular area.A region’s weather patterns, usually
tracked for at least 30 years, are considered its
climate.

Weather is a short-term state of the atmosphere,

including temperature, atmospheric pressure,
wind, humidity, precipitation, and cloud cover.

Factors
Answering the following Guide Questions
Q1 ● How much is the tilt of Earth’s axis?
The measurements of the
Earth’s tilt axis is 23.5
degrees
Q2 • Which part of the Earth receives most of the
sun’s rays?

The Equator, at 0° latitude,

receives a maximum intensity
of the sun’s rays all year. As a
result, areas near Earth’s
Equator experience relatively
constant sunlight and little
solstice variation.
Q3 • Why does the amount of heat received by places
far from the equator become less?
Because they are not directly hit by sun’s rays or
sunlight

Q4 • Why are the coldest places on earth found near

the poles?
Since they’re the farest from the equator they
tend to have the lowest temperature
Q5 • Why are places with high temperature found at
the equator?
Because they are directly hit by sun’s rays or
sunlight

Q6 • How does the latitude affect climate?

The lower the latitude the higher the temperature
The higher the latitude the lower the temperature
In temperate zone the temperature is average
Q7 • Which place is the coldest?

Baguio

Q7 • Which place is the hottest?

Tacloban

Conclusion
What you have learned
 Generalization
In conclusion, latitude and altitude are two important
factors that significantly affect climate. Latitude
determines the amount of solar radiation that an area
receives, which plays a critical role in determining
temperature and precipitation patterns. Areas closer
to the equator receive more direct sunlight and are
generally warmer than areas closer to the poles. This
is because the same amount of solar radiation is
spread over a larger area near the poles, resulting in
cooler temperatures.
Altitude also plays a crucial role in determining climate.
As altitude increases, the air becomes less dense, which
causes it to cool down. This results in a decrease in
temperature as one moves up a mountain. Additionally,
altitude can affect precipitation patterns as moist air
rises and cools, causing water vapor to condense and
fall as rain or snow. This can create unique
microclimates in mountainous areas, with different
climate zones existing at different elevations.

Overall, latitude and altitude are important factors that

must be taken into account when studying climate. They
play a crucial role in shaping temperature, precipitation,
and other climate patterns, and understanding how they
work together is essential for understanding and
predicting climate changes.
