Australia is the sixth largest country by area* and extends from around 10o south of the Equator to 44o south (Tasmania). Darwin is the capital of the Northern Territory (technically it is a territory not a state and has slightly different government). Darwin is approximately 11o south of the equator. Cooktown and Cairns are two cities in far North Queensland which are ~ 15o /17o south of the equator. Kununurra and Broome lie on the same latitudes as Cooktown and Cairns in the state of Western Australia.
Queensland and Western Australia are closest states to the equator but the Northern Territory is equally close. (At all times of the year, not just November.)
The closer one is to the equator the less variation in day length from summer to winter. November in northern Australia is usually hot, mid 20 to mid to high 30 oC, and can be humid near the coast. Temperatures usually cool off at night. It is the beginning of the rainy season in Northern Australia with increasing risk of cyclones. Summer officially starts on 1st December in Australia.
* About the same size as the United States without Alaska.
In November, the Australian states that are closer to the equator and therefore generally warmer are primarily Queensland and Northern Territory. These states experience tropical climates and tend to have higher temperatures and humidity levels compared to states further south. City destinations within these states include Cairns, Darwin, and Townsville.
Winds near the equator blow mainly from the east to the west in a pattern known as the trade winds. These winds are caused by the rotation of the Earth and the heating of the air near the equator.
Near the equator, temperatures tend to remain relatively constant throughout the year with minimal variation between seasons. This is because the equatorial regions receive consistent direct sunlight year-round due to their proximity to the equator.
Yes, air near the equator is typically warmer than air near the poles due to the angle at which sunlight strikes the earth. Near the equator, sunlight is more concentrated, resulting in higher temperatures. In contrast, near the poles, sunlight is spread out over a larger area, leading to cooler temperatures.
Locations near the equator typically have consistently warm temperatures throughout the year due to their proximity to the sun. This means that there isn't a significant difference in temperatures between summer and winter at equatorial regions.
be in the form of heavy rain showers or thunderstorms due to the warm air and high humidity in tropical regions near the equator.
They are warm because the states are near to the equator and the equator is near to the sun.
No, North Carolina is not near the equator. It is located in the southeastern United States, far north of the equator.
No, the United States is not near the equator. The equator is an imaginary line that divides the Earth into the Northern and Southern Hemispheres, and the United States is located entirely in the Northern Hemisphere.
Las Vegas is not near the equator or the tropics. It is located in the Mojave Desert in the southwestern United States.
The countries closest to the equator are Ecuador, Colombia, Brazil, and Somalia. They have cities and regions that lie directly on or very near the equator line.
Yes Panama is near the equator.
your a wet climate near the equator
s far at the equator colder than contries near the equator
because the more southern states are closer to the equator, and the closer to the equator you get, the warmer it gets. it gets warmer near the equator because the earth's tilt has the sun's light/heat fall onto one place (the equator). the earth's tilt also gives us seasons.
In noon near the equator, the sun is high in the sky.
no, the states are warm climate because they are near the equator,they are warm/humid climates because florida first of all is a troical climate .
Greece is closer to the equator than the United States. The equator runs through countries near the Earth's equator, while the US is located farther north.
