Wind belts: Wind patterns can cause uneven heating of the earth as well as delivering air masses with unique properties. Warm air moves from the equator towards the north, on the other hand, cooler air go from the pole back to the equator
Altitude: Altitude can affect the local climates, as the weather is usually warm in low-level regions and becomes cooler and drier as the altitude becomes higher.
Pressure belts: The pressure regulates the direction of wind with which the climate also changes.
Ocean currents: They regulate climate by transferring heat energy, the warm water is carried from the equator to the pole while cold water returns to tropical regions.
Relationship between continents and oceans: When the land is near the ocean (water bodies), the climate of the land is regulated with respect to day and night.
Topography: This factor has a huge influence on the climate. Each topographical feature can affect the weather, for example, mountains can act as a physical barrier in front of wind and precipitation clouds, thus mountains face the colder weather while moving towards slopes, the air compresses and the weather becomes warmer.
The important consequence of upwelling are abundance of fish resources in the upwelling region, influence of coastal climate,development of sea fogs and intensification of existing coastal currents
