  2. Help distribute heat throughout World Transfer it from one part of w to another transfer heat and affect precipitation determine how hot/cold Tropics-hot, high lat polar zones – cold , Middle lat- temperate affects temperature, as it increases temperature drops Landforms can affect precipitation Can cause floods, mudslides and droughts Creates global warming Both circular flow, NEC clockwise, SEC counterclockwise From Caribbean along coast of E North Am as far north as Southern Canada

  3. Temperature Precipitation always hot, 79 Rainfall daily rainy,cooler Summer, dryer, warmer winter hot summers, Mild to cold winters, less than 10 in. Rain per year, drop temp night dry, hot summers Cool, rainy winters cloudy, foggy Damp, even rain long summers Heat , humidity, mild winter var. temp & precip. 4 seasons, short, cool summ. Long, very cold winters very little precip Permafrost, v short cool summ. Variable climate, depends on altitude, latitude Topography, continental location Between lat 30deg N, and 30 deg S Above 60 deg N, below 60 deg S

  4. Forest regions, cat.g. by types of trees supported broadleaf ( deciduous ) , needleleaf (coniferous) Flat regions dotted with a few trees Extreme climates with dry a/o cold conditions Interdependent comm. Of plants & animals regional ecosystem forest region In Tropical Zone, heavy con. of broadleaf trees forestlands Biome of drought res. Trees & shrubs flat, grassy mostly treeless plains of the grasslands flat, grassy , treeless plains or prairie In N. hemisphere COLD NO, because humus content is low and depth of soil shallow
