Where is 30 degrees north and 30 degrees south?
horse latitudes
The horse latitudes are located at about 30 degrees north and south of the equator. It is common in this region of the subtropics for winds to diverge and either flow toward the poles (known as the prevailing westerlies) or toward the equator (known as the trade winds).
Where is 30 degrees south latitude 30 degrees east longitude?
This is certainly a pretty part of KwaZulu-Natal, the most populous province of South Africa.
Where is 30 degrees north and 100 degrees west?

Where is 30 degrees south of the equator?
The 30th parallel south is a circle of latitude that is 30 degrees south of the Earth’s equator. It stands one-third of the way between the equator and the South Pole and crosses Africa, the Indian Ocean, Australia, the Pacific Ocean, South America and the Atlantic Ocean.

What are the degrees of longitude and latitude?
The degree of the angle is between -90° and 90°. longitude and latitude coordinates are usually expressed in degrees and minutes. Every location consists of a latitude and longitude which is like an unique address for each point. By giving the latitude and longitude, we can track down exactly where someone is located.
Are there any cities in the world that are 50 degrees west?
Seriously, check the map! The only non-Brazilian place at 50 degrees West is the tiny and remote Qaqortoq, Greenland. Locations in the North and South are best known for their extremes. The poles are each covered in snow year round, so expect cold temperatures in these cities to the far North and South.
Which is the number of degrees north or south of the equator?
Latitude is the number of degrees north or south of the equator, the imaginary line that runs horizontally through the Earth. Longitude is the number of degrees east or west of the prime meridian, an even more imaginary line because it was made up. Stand up and imagine your feet represent an exact point on Earth. Do you know which way North is?
What is the mid point of the latitude and longitude?
The mid-point of these quadrants is 0 degrees latitude (the equator) and 0 degrees longitude (the North-South line that runs through Greenwich Observatory). Latitude increases as you go North, making the Northern Hemisphere positive latitude and the Southern Hemisphere negative latitude. Paris, for example, is at about 48, 2.
