* Latitude: The closer you are to the equator, the longer the sun shines.
* Time of year: Daylight hours are longer in summer and shorter in winter.
* Specific location: Even within a latitude, variations in terrain and other factors can affect daylight hours.
Here's a general idea:
* Equator: The sun shines for approximately 12 hours on a clear day year-round.
* Mid-latitudes: In summer, the sun can shine for 14-16 hours. In winter, it might only shine for 8-10 hours.
* High latitudes: In summer, the sun can shine for 20 hours or more. In winter, there might be very little sunlight.
