When you think about it the north and south poles are frozen and it gets warmer and warmer as it reaches the equator. The reason for that is the sun. The sun rays hit the equator more then the North and South Poles.


I hope that helps.

What are the ways elevation affects weather and climate?
viva [34]

As you increase in elevation, there is less air above you thus the pressure decreases. As the pressure decreases, air molecules spread out further (i.e. air expands) and the temperature decreases. If the humidity is at 100 percent (because it's snowing), the temperature decreases more slowly with height.
