Latitudes farther from the equator have higher numbers.
The equator is 'zero' latitude, and the poles are 90 degrees
north and south.

∙ 12y agoAt latitudes farther from the equator, the climate tends to be colder due to the angle at which sunlight strikes the Earth. Seasons are more pronounced with greater variations in daylight hours throughout the year. Additionally, precipitation patterns may be more affected by the presence of large bodies of water or mountain ranges.

Areas farther away from the equator receive less direct sunlight, causing them to have lower average temperatures. Additionally, the angle at which sunlight strikes the Earth's surface at higher latitudes results in less heat being absorbed by the atmosphere. These factors combine to make it cooler the farther away from the equator you go.
Because its the foundation for the all latitudes and all latitudes start to originate up and down from the equator.
Climates farther from the equator receive less direct sunlight due to the curvature of the Earth, resulting in cooler temperatures. Additionally, the angle at which sunlight reaches the Earth's surface at higher latitudes leads to less heat being absorbed, contributing to cooler temperatures in these regions.
90 north latitudes + 90 south latitudes + 1 line of equator
There are no negative latitudes, its either north or south(of the equator). As you go up, or north from the equator, the latitudes go up. As you go south and move below the equator the latitudes go up as you move south. 63°17′N to 67°08′09″N, this is the range for Iceland.
This area is called the Doldrums. Horse Latitudes are farther north.
there are 181 latitudes.90 latitudes above equator+90 latitudes below the equator +equator.90+90+1=181
There are 181 parallels of latitude because generally, each degree of latitude is divided into 60 minutes, and 60 minutes are further divided into 60 seconds. This leads to a total of 21,600 minutes in a complete circle (360 degrees x 60 minutes). Subtracting the two points where the axis intersects the reference plane gives us 21,600 - 360 = 21,240, which are the total number of parallels minus the polar circles (90°N and 90°S).

Latitudes closer to the equator receive more direct sunlight throughout the year, leading to higher temperatures. This is due to the Earth's curvature and the angle at which sunlight strikes the Earth's surface at different latitudes.

Meridians are not evenly spaced. They are closer together at extreme latitudes, and farther apart near the equator. Near the equator, each minute of longitude is approximately one nautical mile (6076 feet). At other latitudes, the number of nautical miles between minutes of longitude is approximately the cosine of the latitude.
If the grasslands are located at latitudes close to the equator, the grasslands may get little or none. The farther away from the equator the colder it gets, so the more snowfall they will recieve. And then it also depends on depends on whether it is Winter or Summer there.

Closer to the equator you are, the hotter it'll be.
The latitudes that are around the equator are the latitudes that usually have the warmest temperatures. Countries and cities around the equator usually experience sunshine all year round.
Montpelier is farther from the equator.
