THE FIVE MOST IMPORTANT PHENOMENA THAT AFFECT THE CLIMATE
Meteorological conditions are the states in which is found at a given time the interaction of natural phenomena occurring in the atmosphere and influencing a specific area of the Earth.
The most common meteorological phenomena are rain
or wind.
Different regions can have different climates.
To describe the climate of a place, we might say what the temperatures are like during different seasons, how windy it usually is, or how much rain or snow typically falls.
The wind is the movement of air masses on a large scale. It is classified by its speed and address.
The humidity of the air is due to the steam water, which comes from the evaporation of the ocean, other bodies of water such as rivers or lakes, and the vegetation.
Atmospheric pressure is the force that exerts the air per unit area above the surface from the earth. The pressure varies according to latitude, temperature of the moment of
measurement and altitude.
Precipitation is the fall of water from the atmosphere to the Earth, in the form of rain, drizzle, snow, sleet and hail.
The temperature is the specific degree of heat of the air at a certain place and time.
Latitude: Latitude refers to the distance of a location on
Earth's surface from the equator in relation to the North and
South poles.

Altitude: It is defined as how high a location is above sea level ( a city in the mountains has a high altitude).

It presents changes in the temperature of the Pacific Ocean, when the ocean water cools or heats up by 1 to 3 degrees Celsius from the normal temperature at the same time of the year.
