Explain why climate is warmer at the equator than at specific latitudes?

Solution

The climate is warmer at the equator compared to the specific latitudes because \"increasing elevation in latitude from sea level at the foot of a tropical mountain to its summit, encounter ecological zones similar to the biomes found across great distances from the equator to the poles. This is because \"intensity of sunlight varies on surface of Earth because of its curved shape\". At the equator, the intensity of sunlight is higher compared to the specific latitudes of poles. In tropical areas, the intensity of sunlight per unit area incidence varies with Polar Regions due to an oblique angle at higher altitudes. So that when going from zone of equator to poles, anyone faces intensity of variable solar radiation and every 1000 meters rise in elevation of latitude is leading to reduction in temperature of 6celcius degrees. Thereby more solar radiation observed predominantly at the equator region initiates a specific global way of air circulation and precipitation.
