Procedure B:
Now that your teacher has approved which factor affects each of the pairs of locations, describe what the
climate of each location will be and explain why. Explanations must be scientific and detailed. For
example, if you are explaining how prevailing winds affect the climate, be sure to discuss sinking dry air
or rising moist air (from your ESRT's). Several locations have been partially completed for you as an
example.
