Which is colder in winter in France or Beijing?

The seventh-grade children don't know whether they know the specific heat capacity and ocean current, so it's good to know.

The correct option is the second one.

There are two reasons.

1. France has a temperate maritime climate with mild winters; Beijing has a temperate monsoon climate, which is continental and cold in winter. Why is one gentle and the other cold? Because the specific heat capacity of seawater is greater than that of land.

2. The westerly winds prevail in France in winter, and the wind comes from the sea, bringing warm and humid airflow, plus the role of the North Atlantic warm current; The northwest wind in Beijing comes from cold Siberia.
