Tropical Climates Tropical Savanna Tropical Rainforest

Tropical Savanna Hot all year round, a few months are very dry

Tropical Rain Forest Description – Hot and rainy all year round, lush vegetation

Mild Climates Humid Subtropical Mediterranean Marine West Coast Climate

Humid Subtropical Description - Mid-latitude regions; hot humid summers with heavy rain; short and mild winter

Mediterranean Description - Mild rainy winters and hot dry summers

Marine West Coast Description – Winds from the ocean make it mild; rainy winters and cool summers

Continental Climates Humid Continental Subarctic

Humid Continental 4 seasons; winters can be long, cold and snowy but there are short hot summers

Subarctic Climate Close to the polar regions; cold bitter winters but temperatures go above freezing in summer

Polar Climates Tundra Ice Cap

Tundra Arctic region; “vast treeless plain” cold, harsh and dry; permafrost

Ice Cap Bitterly cold with giant ice sheets; monthly averages do not go above freezing

Dry Climates Steppe Desert

Steppe surrounds many deserts with partly dry grasslands and prairies; inches of annual rainfall

Desert Dry all year; gets less than 10 inches of annual rainfall

Highland Climates Highland/Mountain

Highland or Mountain Local climates vary greatly because of differences in elevation; cool to cold climates year round; tall mountains will have a timberline.
