Chapter 7 - Geography Notes

Chapter 7
Climate Factors
2015-06-08

Global Factors:

Ø Latitude – hottest areas of the earth are located close to the equator, coolest areas closest to the poles
Ø Wind Systems – there are prevailing winds at different latitudes. Our prevailing wind system in our area is the “Prevailing Westerlies”
Ø Air Masses – there are air masses of different temperatures and pressures that affect climate
Ø Ocean Currents – warm and cold ocean currents exist and affect the temperatures of the air travelling above them

Regional Factors:

Ø Altitude – higher the elevation the cooler it is
Ø Mountain Barriers – orthographic precipitation
Ø Bodies of Water – large bodies of water retain heat which affect climate. In the cooler months, places located close to bodies of water are usually warmer, and in the warmer months of the year, places are usually cooler than locations not near the water.
Ø Deserts - areas that have less than 250mm of total precipitation


Climate Regions of the World


1.    Tropical Climate – hot with rain all year
2.    Savanna Climate – hot with dry season
3.    Steppe Climate – warm and dry
4.    Desert Climate – hot and very dry
5.    Mild Climate – warm and wet
6.    Continental Climate – wet with cold winter
7.    Subarctic Climate – very cold winter
8.    Polar Climate – very cold and dry
9.    Mountainous Climate – altitude affects climate



Vegetation and Soils
                                                              2015-06-08

What is the difference between “vegetation” and “natural vegetation”?


Vegetation refers to the plants that grow in an area.

Natural Vegetation refers to plants that are native to the area – plants that grow there naturally without human interference.

Factors that Affect Vegetation:
ü Light
ü Moisture
ü Heat
ü Soil
ü Pollution

As a result, vegetation is mainly determined by climate.  We live in a vegetative region called broadleaf deciduous woodlands, specifically part of the Carolinian Forest.
