What is Latitude
Wind and Air masses are large bodies of wind that could largely affect the climate of some places. This happens because of the waves caused the ocean tides, a good example of this is the Bahamas, the water there is hot therefore, the wind and weather must be hot. The wind and air masses moves based on the speed of the earth, so the air does not move but the earth makes it look like it's moving. This is an illusion of the earth moving faster than the wind. Speaking of illusions, there is a phenomenon called the Coriolis effect, it happens when you view a certain point in a place stationarily, resulting you to see a moving object to follow the path it going in. On the other hand when you procced with object to tend to see a curve in the trajectory.
Impact on Cliamte
Winds can largely effect the climate of many landmasses, the air originates from the ocean currents. When the earth spins fast, the wind cannot keep up so the wind gets slower in the equator and faster the farther the wind is away from the equator.
