Summary Introduction
To analyze:
The reason for the moderate climate nearby a water body.
Introduction:
The earth is covered by water 0n 2/3rd f it's complete area. The water plays a major role in the maintaining the climatic conditions on earth. The coastal regions are known to have a moderate temperature throughout the year and as the distance from the coast increase, the climate become vulnerable to change with the day length.
