Central Canada has a much greater annual range in temperature than does South America despite both located at comparable high latitudes (North and South, respectively)

The reasons why Central Canada has a much greater annual range in temperature than does South America:

  • Canada is located in the northern hemisphere, which is dominated by land, whereas the southernmost tip of South America is located in the southern hemisphere, which is dominated by ocean.
  • Water has a 2.5 times higher specific heat than land.
  • This causes the land to heat up and cool down more quickly than the sea.
  • There are more heat transmission processes in water.
  • As a result, central Canada has a wider range of temperatures than southern South Africa.
