Adverb clauses, also called adverbial clauses, are dependent clauses that function as adverbs. As they are dependent clauses, they must have a subordinating conjunction to connect them to the rest of the sentence. In this case, the subordinating conjunction that introduces the adverbial clause and gives information about place is "wherever".
