A A climate climate is a long-term pattern of air is a long-term pattern of air temperatures and precipitation. Earth has temperatures and precipitation. Earth has 33 major climate zones on either side of the major climate zones on either side of the Equator.Equator.

Tropical- climates are always warm.They are near the Eauator, where the sun
shines directly on Earth. Warm ocean water helps heat the air.

CLIMATES OF THE WORLDCLIMATES OF THE WORLD Temperate- located between the
tropical climates and the North and South Poles.
The surface of Earth is curved away from the sun, so the sun does not shine directly on it.
At different times of the year, Earth tips toward or away from the sun
The amount of solar energy that reaches Earth in the temperate zone changes from season to season.
Temperate climate zones have both hot and cold seasons.

CLIMATES OF THE WORLDCLIMATES OF THE WORLD Polar- these climate zones are cold all year
round. Very little solar energy reaches Earth in the polar
climate zone. The ocean water is cold all year round, which keeps the air cold.

Oceans and mountains affect the climate Oceans and mountains affect the climate within each zone.within each zone.
In temperate climates, ocean water can In temperate climates, ocean water can keep nearby air from being very hot or keep nearby air from being very hot or very cold. Mountains near oceans can very cold. Mountains near oceans can block ocean winds. The climate on the block ocean winds. The climate on the side of the mountains away from the side of the mountains away from the ocean is usually hot and dry.ocean is usually hot and dry.
