The amount of energy received varies with latitude,time of day, and season of the year. As you will see, the variations in solar heating are caused by the motions ofEarth relative to the sun and by variations in Earthâs land and ocean surface.he most importantmeasurable properties of weather and climate are air temperature, humidity, type and amount of precipitation, airpressure, and the speed and direction of the wind.Figure 1 Buffalo, New York, was under a state of emergency in late December 2001 after receiving almost 2meters of snow.
