latitude-lines are called parallels because they are parallel to the equator. latitude at north and south pole is 90 degrees. latitude measured north and south but runs east to west.insulation means different places have different weather.
world pressure systems-the earth has uneven heating which is caused by latitudinal differences and the arrangement of oceans. high pressure cells tropical zones get bigger in summer low pressure cells are caused by uneven heating in the earth. pressure systems in the north pacific produces summer and winter weather.
global wind patterns- the pressure systems causes global wind patterns. winds are always bringing weather across land and water.
