The relationships between planetary and regional or local scales of the climate system are discussed.The main features of the planetary scale climate may be understood as the response of the climate system to the planetary scale forcing (heating by the sun), the distribution of continents and largest mountain ranges. The regional climate, then, may be understood as the result of both the planetary scale climate and the regional features such as secondary mountains, marginal seas, land use, and the like.
