Chapter 26 Modern Earth Science Climate Chapter 26 Modern Earth Science

What are the three main climate zones?

Climate Zones 3 Major Climate Zones Polar Climate Middle-latitude Climate Tropical Climate

Tropical Climate 3 Tropical Climates Desert Rain Forest Savanna

Polar Climate 2 Polar Climates Subarctic Tundra Severe winters & short summers Canada Tundra No trees, very dry, cold air with little precipitation Northern Alaska

Middle-Latitude Climate 5 Climates Desert & Steppe Eastern Montana Mediterranean Most of California Marine West-Coast Seattle Humid Sub-tropical Georgia Humid Continental Iowa

US: The Middle Latitude Climate Marine West Coast Climate Mediterranean Middle Latitude Steppe Middle Latitude Desert Humid Continental Humid Subtropical

Tropical Rain Forest Warm & humid Near the equator (5 - 10° north & south) Dense, rain-forest vegetation Annual rainfall more than 250 cm Yearly temp. range only about 3° C Amazon River basin, parts of Central America & Southeast Asia

Tropical Desert Warm and dry 20-30 degree latitude north and south of the equator Some of the driest deserts Annual rainfall less than 25 cm

Tropical Savanna Between rain forest and deserts Very wet summers and very dry winters

Polar Climates Subarctic Climate Tundra Between 55-65 degree north latitude Between 25-50 cm rainfall Tundra Little precipitation 25 cm
