Due to its vast territory, Argentina presents a remarkable climatic diversity. In this sense, various geographic factors have a direct bearing, determining the climatic characteristics of the different regions.

One of these factors is latitude: the Argentine Republic is characterized by its great latitudinal development: from 21º 46' to 55º 58' S. This is basically the origin of the climatic variation in the country.

Otherwise, the mountain ranges extending from north to south in the Argentine west are a relief factor facilitating the circulation of air masses in the east of the country and determining different kinds of winds.

Furthermore, relief influences temperatures insofar as the higher the altitude, the lower the temperature.
The presence of the sea, which, in the case of the Argentine territory, constitutes a natural boundary to the east, exercises a moderating action, diminishing the thermal range.
