Using four or more complete sentences, describe the main characteristics of the highland climate type. What role does elevation play in this type of climate?

Answer:

Responses may vary but should include some or all of the following information:Highland climates are located high in mountain regions and can be found at all latitudes. The main factor in determining temperature in this type of climate is elevation, not latitude. A highland climate is as likely to be found close to a tropical climate as to a polar climate. Highland climates are found at high elevations and have cold climates year-round. This consistently cold weather comes from the altitude because as elevation increases, temperature decreases.
