The contrast is greater in the Winter. The equatorial temperature is relatively stable throughout the year ... always what I call 'hot'. Temperatures in the Arctic region ... for example on Alaska's North Slope where this writer has personal experience ... can remain below zero for long stretches during the Winter, but are equally likely to remain "shirt-sleeve" during the Summer, often even hitting the 80s and 90s.

Is the temperature contrast between the equator and the Arctic region greatest in the winter or in the summer?
The difference would be greatest in the winter, because the temperature near the equator is relatively constant, but the Arctic is considerably colder in the winter.
What is the temperature during spring?
Depends where you are. Spring at the poles are still cold. Spring in the desert at the equator is hot.
Why don't the places near the equator have seasons?
Because at the equator there is a tropical zone with a higher incidence of humity and facilitating the proliferation and growth of trees in moist soil enriched
Which region has specific seasons?
between the equator and one of the earth's poles
How long are the days in each hemisphere?
That hemisphere is tilted towards the sun to its greatest amount. It is the summer solstice in that hemisphere. The sun reaches its highest point and you have the most amount of daylight hours. The further from the equator you are, the more hours of daylight there is.That hemisphere is tilted towards the sun to its greatest amount. It is the summer solstice in that hemisphere.

Why is the flow aloft predominantly westerly?
In the case of the westerlies, the temperature contrast between the poles and the equator drives these winds. ~SNOOP DOGG~

Where is the concentration of ozone greatest?
The ozone is greatest at the equator. It because of the high temperature.
Where on earth are the seasonal variations of temperature in Daly Lane greatest and least?

The greatest differences in daily temperature are at the equator ture are false?
you answer it i dont know
Where do you have the least temperature change between seasons?
At the equator.
The difference in temperature between the equator and poles?
It is more COLDER in the POLES and it is more WARMER by the EQUATOR.So therefore the temperature by the equator is warmer and the temperature by the poles is much colder.
How does a locations latitude determine how warm or cold it is?
The latitude can be thought of as the distance from the equator. 0 degrees latitude is the equator, which is typically warmer than locations closer than the poles. As you move away from the Equator and towards the North or South poles, the weather tends to be colder. In contrast, the region between the poles and the equator often has a greater temperature range variation.
What do temperature differences between the equator and the two poles produce?
convection currents in the atmosphere
The temperature along the equator tends to be?
The temperature is usually hotter closer to the equator.
Why does the Philippines have warm temperature throughout the year?
because the philipines is between the tropic of cancer and the equator
