Latitudes

Based partly on data taken from Pytheas, Hipparchus correlated cubits of the sun's elevation at noon on the winter solstice, latitudes in hours of a day on the summer solstice, and distances between latitudes in stadia for some locations.

By “vndtere Presill”, the Zeytung meant that part of Brazil in the lower latitudes, but Schöner mistook it to mean the land on the southern side of the “strait”, in higher latitudes, and so gave to it the opposite meaning.

Cold, dense water is shown in blue, flowing south from upper latitudes, while warm, less dense water, shown in red flows north from low latitudes. citation The upper layers are formed by deep open ocean convection during winter.

During a glacial period cold-adapted organisms spread into lower latitudes, and organisms that prefer warmer conditions become extinct or are squeezed into lower latitudes.

Heat is more likely to increase the risk of mortality in cities at mid-latitudes and high latitudes with significant annual temperature variation.

However, kestrels may more often prey on lizards at southern latitudes, in northern latitudes the kestrel is found to more often deliver lizards to their nestlings during midday and also with increasing ambient temperature.

However, the overall column amounts are greater in the northern hemisphere high latitudes than in the southern hemisphere high latitudes.

The length of the meridian arc between two given latitudes is given by replacing the limits of the integral by the latitudes concerned.

The natural foci of plague are situated in a broad belt in the tropical and sub–tropical latitudes and the warmer parts of the temperate latitudes around the globe, between the parallels 55 degrees North and 40 degrees South.

The scale is now true at these latitudes whereas parallels between these latitudes are contracted by the projection and their scale factor must be less than one.

The south polar latitudes below the Antarctic Circle are in daylight whilst the north polar latitudes above the Arctic Circle are in night.

The Voyagers found aurora -like ultraviolet emissions of hydrogen at mid-latitudes in the atmosphere, and auroras at polar latitudes (above 65 degrees).

Thus localities at lower latitudes have more species than localities at higher latitudes.

Changes in Latitudes, Changes in Attitudes, featuring his breakthrough song Margaritaville.

Only about one-third of the plant species studied, including holly, wild olives, and ivy, produce fruit in the spring when the birds are heading north—a time that would help the species move to cooler latitudes.

That is basically what causes the greenish ghostly lights in the sky, though they're not often seen in latitudes this far south.

The team showed that correlations between Covid-19 metrics (new cases and deaths, total cases and deaths) and temperature and latitude strengthened during cooler months and at higher latitudes.

They found that in cold, and latitudes—drought can actually benefit the trees by extending the growing season.

Usually a strong jet stream confines Arctic air to the north, stabilized by a big difference in temperature between low and high latitudes.

A warming climate and other environmental changes have contributed to the expansion of the range of several tick species into higher latitudes in North America, PHAC said.
