I have never heard of the "four causes of weather/climate" in forty years of meteorology. The driving force behind all weather is the incoming radiation from the Sun. Other factors such as the orbit of the planet around the Sun; the rotation of the planet on its axis; and the differences between oceans and landmasses merely modify the effect of the solar radiation. Could you be a bit more specific about your four causes please.
