Climate and weather

In the context of climate, temperature indicates the thermal state of a body, a liquid or a gas, which is usually measured in Celsius (USA in Fahrenheit). Room temperature is the temperature that usually prevails in inhabited rooms. Air temperature is the outside temperature of the atmosphere near the ground, which is not influenced by solar radiation or ground heat.

Temperature is one of the important criteria for climate classification or categorisation into the Earth's large-scale climate regions or macroclimates (large climates).
