Local Climate Microclimate – Climate of a SMALL area

EX: Rural, Urban, Suburban Influenced by – elevation, proximity to water, human built

structures

Heat Island – occurs in citiesBuilding absorb & radiate heat more than vegetation

Highland Climates Elevation increases – temperatures

decrease

Highland Climates – mountainous regionsLarge variations in temps & precipitation over

short distances

Large Bodies of WaterAffect climate

Due to the high specific heat of water

Water holds heat energy in

Therefore, precipitation nearby increases
