Six major controls influence the climate of a particular zone: Latitude The amount of solar energy a location receives varies based on its latitude. This is due to the Earth's curvature. Altitude The atmosphere becomes less dense as you move from the Earth's surface to higher altitudes, causing temperatures to decrease. Pressure and wind system The pressure and wind system of an area is influenced by its latitude and altitude. Distance from the sea The sea moderates the climate, but this influence decreases as the distance from the sea increases. Ocean currents Coastal areas are affected by the climate of the oceans and onshore winds. Relief features High mountains can act as a barrier to hot or cold winds. They can also cause precipitation if they are high enough and lie in the path of rain-bearing winds.
