Tropical Rainforest

WHERE ARE TROPICAL CLIMATES LOCATED WHAT IS THE CLIMATE - Within 10° North or South of Equator - Has a high annual rainfall. Typically around 200 cm to 400 cm. In comparison, Singapore’s average annual rainfall is 230cm. - Humiditiy 77-88% (due to plant transpiration) - Temperature during day: ºC - Temperature at night: 20-25ºC

Humidity 77-88% Tropical Rainforests are well known for high relative humidity At the equatorial region, air pressure is low As air moves from high to low pressure areas, surrounding air flows into tropical region Air brings in water vapour from oceans, increasing humidity Diagram explaining reason why there is such high humidity 85 degrees F= … degrees C 75 degrees F=23.888… degrees C

Humidity

Temperature and Rainfall Temperature during day: ºC Temperature at night: ºC cm yearly Singapore  230cm yearly

IN CONCLUSION… Located 10 degrees North and South of Equator Has a high annual rainfall. Typically around 200 cm to 400 cm. In comparison, Singapore’s average annual rainfall is 230cm.
