What are the major patterns of vegetation found on
Earth?

Are similar vegetation patterns found in different parts of the
world?

What animals are associated with the different vegetation
patterns?

Do climates change over time?

What influences the climate of a particular region?
![Page 8: What is the relationship between climate and the types of vegetation throughout the world?](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56649ed55503460f94be593b/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
What influences the climate of a particular region?
1. Altitude - altitude, temperature2. Latitude – sun’s radiation is less direct as
you move N or S from equator Proximity to large body of water (moderates
temperature)Proximity to mountainsAlbedo (albedo = reflection = temperatureHumidity

Temperature and Precipitation Patterns
Humidity: Amount of water vapour in air (reported as % water that air can hold at a specific temperature).
Humidity as temperature Humidex = combines temperature and precipitation to give an indication of what the air “feels like” to people

Temperature and Precipitation Patterns
When air cools, thermal energy is removed from water vapor in the air, changes from gas to liquid (Hvap)
The temperature when water vapor in air condenses is called DEW POINT.
