What factors influence Croatia's climate?

Croatia's climate is influenced by several factors, and these are: a moderate latitude «half way» between the Equator and the North Pole, the dominant influence of humid western oceanic air masses, a position along the warm Adriatic sea, the proximity of the African mainland to the south and Eurasia to the north-east, the openness of the continental part of Croatia to the north and a relatively high mountain barrier along the sea coast.
