Living closer to the sea can make temperatures more moderate due to the ocean's ability to regulate temperature. However, coastal areas can also experience more humidity and winds that can make it feel colder. Overall, the effect on temperature will depend on various factors such as the specific location and prevailing weather patterns.

Aberdeen is colder than Plymouth in the winter because Aberdeen is farther away from the equator then Plymouth, so the heat waves are smaller and less powerful.
The further you are from sea level, the thinner the atmosphere becomes. Thinner air is less capable of trapping heat, so the temperature drops as you gain altitude. This is why mountains, which are higher above sea level, tend to be colder than low-lying areas.
The poles are colder than other regions because sunlight hits them at a more oblique angle, spreading out the energy over a larger area and making it less intense. This results in lower temperatures at the poles compared to regions closer to the equator.
-16 Celsius is colder than -15 Celsius. The temperature scale is based on the freezing and boiling points of water, with 0 degrees Celsius being the freezing point and 100 degrees Celsius being the boiling point. Therefore, the closer the temperature is to 0 degrees Celsius, the colder it is.
No, the temperature of Earth actually increases as you move closer to the core. This is due to the heat generated by the decay of radioactive elements in the Earth's interior, as well as the residual heat from the planet's formation.
