Across
  1. 3. This happens at 0 and 60-degree latitudes and leads to cloud formations and high precipitation
  2. 4. Winds that travel from a dominant direction
  3. 7. Waters originating near the equator and travel to higher latitudes
  4. 8. This measures your distance from the equator
  5. 10. Locations in the middle of continents, these places have larger temperature changes throughout the year because land changes temperature faster than water
  6. 13. Prevailing wind pattern between 0 and 30-degree latitudes
  7. 14. Ocean currents travel clockwise in the Northern Hemisphere and Counter-Clockwise in the Southern Hemisphere
  8. 16. Located in places like mountains, these places are colder
  9. 17. Very low precipitation area, this occurs on the side of a mountain that faces away from prevailing winds
  10. 18. Measures distance from sea level
  11. 19. Locations close to large bodies of water, these places have warmer winters and cooler summers
Down
  1. 1. Waters originating near the poles and travel to lower latitudes
  2. 2. Prevailing wind pattern between 30 and 60-degree latitudes
  3. 5. This energy occurs in locations further from the equator
  4. 6. Located in places like valleys, these places are warmer
  5. 9. This happens at 30 and 90-degree latitudes and leads to skiesr skys with no precipitation
  6. 11. This energy is higher the closer you are to the equator
  7. 12. Side of a mountain that has high annual precipitation
  8. 15. Side of a mountain that has low annual precipitation
