MODULE 3 Climate regions


This module focuses on different kinds of climate, both in South Africa and the rest of the world. We will start by looking at factors that influence temperature and rainfall (for example, distance from the equator, distance from the sea, height above sea level, ocean currents and mountains). We will then look at South Africa’s climate as well as different climate regions around the world.
