Types of Climate Climate is the combination of temperature, moisture,

wind, and sunshine at a place over a period of many years. Weather is made up of

atmospheric conditions during a few hours or days. The weather may be rainy on a

certain day. But that place may usually have a warm, dry, sunny climate. We learn

about the climate of a place by studying its temperature, moisture, wind, and sunshine

from season to season and year to year. Temperature and the amount of rainfall are

the two most important elements of climate. Others are humidity (air moisture),

cloudiness, fog, sunshine, wind, storms, and air pressure. There are many different

types of climate on earth. Climates of the world can be classified according to their

latitudes and the plants that grow there. Different kinds of plants need different

amounts of heat and moisture for growth. The vegetation of a region tells us about

temperature and rainfall conditions over a long period of al Climates

Tropical climates are found in regions between 35N and 35S latitude. In the tropical

rain forest (nearest the equator) conditions are warm and rainy all year long, and there

is a thick cover of trees. Places farther north and south of the equator have a tropical

wet-and-dry climate. There the forests are not so dense, and many trees lose their

leaves in the dry season. Along 23.5N and 23.5S latitude there are vast regions of

tropical desert climate, where very little vegetation can pical Climates

Subtropical climates are usually found between 30 and 40 North and South latitudes.

The subtropical western coasts of the continents have a Mediterranean climate.

Summers are hot and dry; winters are mild and wet. On the subtropical eastern coasts

of continents the climate is humid subtropical. Summers are hot, and winters are mild.

There is enough rainfall in all seasons for -latitude Climate

Mid-latitude climates occur between 40 and 60 NS latitudes. Strong westerly winds

blow in the mid-latitudes. The climate of the west coast of North America is mild and

rainy most of the year. It helps the growth of fine timber forests. Some places in the

mid-latitudes do not receive moisture because of mountain barriers or their great

distances from the oceans. Humid continental climates cover large mid-latitude area

in eastern parts of the continents. They are forest climates with cold winters and warm

summers. Most of the rainfall comes in the -latitude Climates

High-latitude climates occur from 60 to the poles, North and South. In the high

latitudes it is very cold in winter and cool in summer. The short summers are warm
