These are the six factors
affecting climate.
Latitude, relief and elevation,
continental and maritime
environments, ocean currents, air
masses and prevailing winds
This causes a moderating
effect to the nearby climate.
Bodies of water
Landlocked areas receive this
type of climate.
Wide temperature
ranges
This factor in climate change
is closely associated to the
equator.
Latitude
This continuous
movement of wind moves
air masses from west to
east across Canada.
Prevailing Wind
These two climate
factors are important
in determining the
length of a growing
season.
Precipitation and
Heat
This province is
known for its very
long growing
season.
British Columbia
These two climate
factors determine
the length of
growing season.
Latitude and
continental and
maritime
environments.
Found in the far north
and known as an arctic
desert vegetation
region.
The Tundra

grow in the Tundra region.
Moss, Lichen,
small flowers and
shrubs
Term used to explain
daily temperature and
precipitation
conditions of an area.
Weather
Long term trends
in temperature and
precipitation is
known as.
Climate
When an air mass
hits this type of
barrier it cools
and condenses.
Mountain
Adding all monthly
temperatures of a
region and dividing
it by 12 gives you
this stat.
Average
Temperature
The phenomenon that occurs
when the Pacific ocean
warms up near South
America causing major
climate changes around the
world.
“El Nino”
These are the
layers of the Earth.
The Crust, Mantle,
Outer Core, Inner
Core
The inner core is primarily
made of this material
Thick Solid Iron
Pangaea occurred this many
years ago.
300 Million Years
Ago
Continents began
to break away 200
million years ago
creating this super
continent.
Pangaea
Most of the Earth’s internal
heat comes from this part of
the Earth’s structure.
The Mantle

Term used to explain
the land over the point
of rupture during an
earthquake.
