Question

Usually, it is observed that climates in coastal regions are moderate as compared to climates in the interiors of continents. Why is this so?

Answer 1

Th is more of a Geography question but its because the Ocean levels out the temperatures in the area around it. That is all I really remember, our teacher didn't explain too much on the subject.

Answer 2

The water bodies affects the climate of the particular place because it influences the air pressure near the water bodies.

The heated air takes much energy to heat the water bodies so the environment there is moderate.

In case when the air is cooler than water then heat goes from water to air and it does not takes much energy to raise the temperature of the air.

In this way the climate is moderate at the coastal regions.
