(LOWERN)
Latitude
- The further away from the equator you go, the more seasonal variation there is (and the colder it gets).
- Locations near the equator are warm.
- This region receives the most direct sunlight and energy all year long.
Ocean Currents
- Warm currents heat, and cold currents cool, the air above water.
- Cold currents from the Arctic cool the air and reduce the amount of precipitation in a region (cold air doesn’t evaporate as easily as warm air does).
- When cold and warm currents meet, they can create fog.
Winds and air masses
- Air brings climate conditions from where it came.
- Winds move air masses over land.
Elevation
- Climates get colder as elevations get higher.
- As warm air rises, it expands and loses heat.
Relief
- Mountains form a natural barrier that causes air masses to rise.
- As air rises, it expands and becomes less dense, causing it to cool.
- Therefore, the leeward side of the mountain is colder and has less precipitation.
- Water bodies have a moderating affect on climates of land masses near them.
- Water cools & heats slower than land.
- Therefore, the land near water remains cooler or warmer.
- This also means there is less temperature range from season to season.

Es una sorpresa que la HEPATITIS sea verdaderamente curable, todo gracias al Dr. Iyabiye que ayudó a curar a mi hermano. Mi hermano llegó un día a casa quejándose de dolor en las costillas y cansancio, al día siguiente lo llevé al hospital donde le diagnosticaron hepatitis B crónica, le dieron medicamentos para ralentizar la carga viral, pero luego empeoró con vómitos. Me encontré con el contacto del médico en línea mientras estudiaba sobre la enfermedad, lo contacté y le administró su medicamento a mi hermano y se curó después del tratamiento. Fue a hacerse una prueba y fue negativa. Vine a hablar de eso para salvar a alguien. Contactos del médico: (iyabiyehealinghome@gmail.com) (+ 234-815-857-7300)

I want to share my testimony about Doctor babaiba who helped me.. i want to inform the public how i was cured from (HERPES SIMPLEX VIRUS 1/2 ) by Dr babaiba , i visited different hospital but they gave me list of drugs like Famvir, Zovirax, and Valtrex which is very expensive to treat the symptoms and never cured me. I was browsing through the Internet searching for remedy on HERPES and i saw comment of people talking about how Doctor babaiba cured them. when i contacted him he gave me hope and send a Herbal medicine to me that i took for just 2 weeks and it seriously worked for me, my HERPES result came out negative. I am so happy as i am sharing this testimony. My advice to you all who thinks that there is no cure for herpes that is Not true just contact him and get your Dr babaiba healing herbal cure of all kinds of sickness you may have like
