In general places farther from the equator have colder winters and sometimes hotter summers with lower average year-round temperatures. but there are many other influences on climate besides latitude such as elevation rainfall and proximity to or distance from large bodies of water.
Clastic sedimentary rocks are made up of pieces (clasts) of pre-existing rocks. Pieces of rock are loosened by weathering, then transported to some basin or depression where sediment is trapped. If the sediment is buried deeply, it becomes compacted and cemented, forming sedimentary rock.
