What type of climate is experienced by cities that are close to large bodies of water as compared to inland cities at the same latitude?

Also depending on the temperature, water can influence area population, which isn't especially relevant in means of simple climate.

Large bodies of water heat and cool more slowly than land, which in simple terms, means that the area stays cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter than the inland cities.

The available water can also create a form of humidity with mass evaporation, which, again, is also influenced by how water cools and heats slower than land.

Hope this helped!

the purpose of the heading in the passage is to identify who is telling the story.

this excerpt is part of the book sugar changed the world (2010) written by marc aronson and marina budhos. as the book has been written by two people, the heading "marc" indicates that this specific excerpt is being narrated by aronson. in the fragment, marc describes his grandfather's story after hearing it from his cousin. however, there are other excerpts where budhos is the one that tells the story of her family.

aronson and budhos, who are husband and wife in real life, decided to write sugar changed the world when they found out how sugar, which had an important role in slavery and economy, changed their ancestors' lives.
