How does the climate of a coastal location compare to the climate of an inland location at the same latitude?
A: Coastal locations have cooler summers and colder winters.
B: Coastal locations have cooler summers and warmer winters.
C: Coastal locations have warmer summers and colder winters.
D: Coastal locations have warmer summers and warmer winters.

The correct answer is B. Coastal locations have cooler summers and warmer winters than inland locations at the same latitude.

Explanation:

Coastal climate is characterized by its greater humidity and usually warmer temperature than inland climate. The coastal climate is also more stable over time and is characterized by cool summers and mild winters with - at least outside the tropics - only a minor temperature difference between the seasons, seen from a global meteorological perspective. The climate is also characterized by a slight difference in temperature between day and night.

The reason for this climate is the proximity to the sea and its large masses of water that bind thermal energy. In winter, the sea works as a warming force, and in summer as a cooling one. The humidity prevents really low temperatures because heat is released when the water vapor condenses. However, the weather often varies as the impact can come more from the sea or more from land depending on the movement of the weather systems.
