How to describe the climate characteristics and from what aspects?

Main answer

The description of climate characteristics is mainly described from two aspects: temperature and rainfall, and the terrain can be described appropriately.

Tropical desert climate: high temperature all year round, hot and dry, and little rain.

Mediterranean climate: hot and dry in summer and mild and rainy in winter.

Tropical (sparse) grassland climate: high temperature all year round, with dry and wet seasons in a year.

Tropical rain forest climate: high temperature and rainy all year round.

Tropical monsoon climate: high temperature all year round, with dry and rainy seasons.

Subtropical monsoon and subtropical humid climate: hot and rainy in summer and mild and rainy in winter.

Temperate maritime climate: mild and rainy all year round.

Temperate monsoon climate: hot and rainy in summer and cold and dry in winter.

Temperate continental climate: Leng Xia is hot in winter, with large annual temperature difference, drought and little rain, and precipitation is scarce and concentrated in summer.

Coniferous forest climate in sub-cold zone: winter is long and cold, summer is short and cool, and precipitation is scarce and concentrated in summer.

Polar tundra climate: winter is long and cold, summer is short and low temperature, and precipitation is scarce and concentrated in the hottest month.

Climate of polar ice sheet: it is extremely cold all year round, with little precipitation, mostly less than100 mm.

Plateau Mountain Climate: The vertical climate changes obviously, and the temperature decreases with the elevation and increases with the elevation. (Generally, the temperature drops by 0.6℃ for every increase of 100 meter. ) The annual temperature is low, the annual range is small, and the daily range is large.

The boundary between temperate zone, subtropical zone and tropical zone: 1 month is temperate zone and cold zone, higher than 0℃, lower than 15℃ is subtropical zone and higher than 15℃ is tropical zone, except that the temperate maritime climate is higher than 0℃ and lower than 15℃.
