questions below based on the following temperature data for January and July. Keep in mind, in January it is winter in the northern hemisphere while it is summer in southern hemisphere and vice versa. 70'N 60'N 40'N 10 10- -15 201 -25 20'N port 0 2015 30 -25 201 40's -15 10 5 10 40'E BOTE 120°E 120" 80'w 40'W 160'E 180 160W JANUARY 70'N 60'N 40'N 15 20 25 20'N 20 0 20"5 25 -204 25 20- 15 40"5 156 -10 0 40'E 120 E 120 W 80W 40W 160'E 180 160'W JULY Data from John E. Oliver 1. Is the temperature contrast between the equator and the Arctic region greatest in winter or summer? Why? 2. If latitude were the only control of temperature, the isotherms would run straight, parallel to each other, across the maps from east to west. Describe one region of the world where this hypothetical isotherm pattern is observed and why? 3. Is the influence of cool ocean currents on coastal temperatures more pronounced in summer or winter and why?
