2 Climate is the long-term average weather conditions that occur in a particular region. Climate A region’s climate depends on average temperature and precipitation, as well as how these variables change throughout the year.
Q. What term means weather conditions over a long period of time?
In short, climate is the description of the long-term pattern of weather in a particular area. Some scientists define climate as the average weather for a particular region and time period, usually taken over 30-years.
Q. Does the term weather or climate refer to the average conditions over a long period of time?
While weather refers to short-term changes in the lower atmosphere, climate refers to atmospheric conditions over longer periods of time, usually 30 years or more. Climate can be thought of as an average of weather conditions over time. More importantly, a change in climate can lead to changes in weather patterns.

Climate is the average of that weather. For example, you can expect snow in the Northeast in January or for it to be hot and humid in the Southeast in July. This is climate. The climate record also includes extreme values such as record high temperatures or record amounts of rainfall.
Q. What is an example of climate change?
Temperatures are rising world-wide due to greenhouse gases trapping more heat in the atmosphere. Droughts are becoming longer and more extreme around the world. Tropical storms becoming more severe due to warmer ocean water temperatures.
