#You can see the 'Temperature (July)' and Temperature (December)' maps.  In the June map, where is the weather hotter - northern or southern hemisphere?  In the northern hemisphere, where is it the hottest? Why? Why is it hotter around tropic of cancer in Africa and West Asia, compared to India?

Why? Why is it hotter around the Tropic of Cancer in Africa and West Asia, compared to India?  
 
#In the 'Temperature (December) map, where is the weather hotter - northern or southern hemisphere? Why is the southern hemisphere not as hot in December as the northern hemisphere is in July? In December, the northern hemisphere has larger areas which are colder, compared to Southern hemisphere during July. (or the range of temperatures in northern hemisphere is much more than the southern hemisphere). Why?

#Basically discuss what are the various factor that affect weather/climate - latitude, vegetation/forest area, coastal region v/s hinterland (distance from sea/water body), altitude, land mass vs water body etc). Discuss the weather and climate in your own location / region. What are the causes for the weather / climate patterns? Which countries are more vulnerable to the rising of ocean levels due to global warming?
