The vast influence which the ocean* must exert as a moderator of climate here suggests itself. The heat of summer is stored up in the ocean, and slowly given out during the winter. Hence one cause of the absence of extremes in an island climate. The elements of physiography - Page 39by John J. Prince - 1885Full view - About this book
