How: The higher you are the colder.
Bodys of Water
Why: Water heats and a cools slower than Landmass that creates a Moderate Climate.
How: Body's of Water show the precipitation of the land beside it.
Wind and airmasses
why: When cold air from the Poles and Warm air from the equator meet they get all mixed because the earth is spinning and they create an Airmass.
how: There are things called Wind/Air masses Happening all around us
Relief
why: They track this by the Precipitation on one side of the Mountain
how: Relief A.K.A Mountain Precipitation is measuring the distance between the percentage of rain B]between the highest point and the lowest point of the Mountain.
