Explanation:
(a) Latitude Temperature decreases as we go pole wards from the equator. The rays  of the sun fall vertically in the lower latitudes and slantingly in the higher latitudes. Places located in  the low latitude (e.g., Nagpur) are hotter than places located in the higher latitudes (e.g., Moscow).
(b) Altitude Temperature decreases with increasing altitude at the rate of 1°C for every 165 m of  ascent as the atmosphere gets heated by terrestrial radiation. The lower layers of atmosphere are  denser and have water vapor and dust particles which absorb heat, which is not prevalent in the  higher altitude. Missouri is cooler than Delhi.
(c) Distance from the sea Places located on the coast have moderate temperature as they are  affected by land and sea breezes, hence, the temperature is low. Places away from the coast have  extremes of temperature. Madras on the coast has moderate temperature and Delhi has extremes  of temperature. Prevailing winds Places which are affected by prevailing on-shore winds have  moderate temperature as compared to places which are affected by off-shore (land) winds.
(e) Ocean currents Warm currents raise the temperature of the places, and places affected by cold  currents have lower temperature. Winds blowing over the warm current also bring heavy rainfall in  the region. Whereas winds blowing over cold current absorb less moisture hence the rainfall is less,  e.g., North eastern Canada is affected by the cold Labrador Current hence it remains frozen in  winters, whereas North-western Europe in the same latitude is affected by the warm North Atlantic  drift and has ice-free ports in winters.
(f) Other factors affecting the temperature of a place are: direction of mountains, slope of the land  and vegetation, soil.
