- Latitude (Seasonality)
- Combined Effects of Revolution, Rotation and Tilt of the Earth
- Continentality (distance to large water bodies)
- Atmospheric Circulation
- Seasonal Movement of Subtropical High Pressure
- Coriolis Effect, Centrifugal Acceleration, and Friction
- Ocean Circulation
- Topography, altitude or elevation
