The Climate System The climate system consists of the atmosphere, hydrosphere, cryosphere, surface lithosphere, and biosphere.
The five basic climate controls are: Latitude -determines solar energy input Elevation -influences temperature and precipitation Topography -Mountain barriers up wind can affect precipitation of a region as well as temperature. Topography also affects the distribution of cloud patterns and thus solar energy reaching the surface. Large bodies of water -thermal stability of water moderates the temperature of regions Atmospheric circulation - Large-scale circulation patterns exert a systematic impact on the climate of a region. These controls produce variations in temperature and precipitation
