(Other than bodies of water surrounding the area.). List at least one other factor that might control temperature. Describe how you might quantify it.?
a cloud cover prevent IR radiation( heat ) to leave the atmosphere and radiate into space that's why its colder on a cloudless night
besides that then ambient pressure - if the pressure is rising heat is generated.
a fohen wind - if wind is subsiding it is heated by 3 degrees pr 1000 feed it subsides ( fohen winds are quite complex )
Then there is general wins patterns - arctic winds gives cold climates ( usually ) and tropical wind gives warmer climates.. List at least one other factor that might control temperature. Describe how you might quantify it.?
Pressure. Think ';Ideal Gas Law'; PV=mRT
Altitude;If the place is at a higher altitude the temperature will be less throughout the year.
Time of year. The positioning of the earth relative to the sun.
I am more struck on wind and wind direction. Prevailing windpatterns and such.
i do not know what you mean by how you would quantify it.
