A region's climate is influenced by a combination of factors, including latitude, altitude, distance from the ocean, and prevailing wind patterns.

Hail is a type of frozen precipitation, while rain, snow, and sleet are all types of liquid precipitation.

Weather refers to the short-term state of the atmosphere, while climate refers to the long-term average of weather conditions in a particular area.

Carbon dioxide, methane, and water vapor are all greenhouse gases, while oxygen is not.

The primary cause of global warming is human activities, particularly the burning of fossil fuels, which releases greenhouse gases into the atmosphere.

While global warming may have some positive impacts, such as increased agricultural productivity in some regions, it is generally associated with negative consequences such as rising sea levels, more frequent and severe heat waves, and changes in precipitation patterns.

Mean temperature is the average temperature of a place over a long period of time, typically calculated by taking the average of the daily temperatures over a 30-year period.

The Holdridge life zone system is a bioclimatic classification system, while the Köppen, Trewartha, and Thornthwaite systems are all climate classification systems.

Convection is the transfer of heat through the movement of fluids, such as air or water.

Nimbus is a type of precipitation, not a type of cloud.

Range temperature is the difference between the highest and lowest temperatures recorded in a given period.

Jet streams are not a type of wind, but rather narrow bands of high-altitude winds.

Condensation is the process by which water vapor condenses into liquid water.

Fog is not a type of precipitation, but rather a type of cloud that forms near the ground.

Evaporation is the process by which liquid water changes into water vapor.
