Temperature:

Fahrenheit scale, freezing of water = 32° , boiling of water= 212° ; Celsius scale, freezing of water = 0° , boiling of water= 100°

conversions: ° C = 5/9 (° F-32) = (° F-32)/1.8

° F = 9/5° C + 32 = 1.8° C + 32

Controls of Temperature: latitude, length of day, angle of incidence, amount of atmosphere filtering of incoming solar radiation (insolation); elevation - lapse rate; land and water; ocean currents; diurnal variations, daily march of temperature, cloud cover, humans

Explain the difference between Celsius and Fahrenheit and be able to convert between systems.

Describe the many factors which control the temperature at a given location.
