Climate Regions How does climate effect how and where people live?

Tropical Wet Hot 80 F Rainfall daily/80 in yearly

Tropical Wet And Dry Rainy in summer/ dry in winter Near Tropical Wet areas Grasslands cover most areas

Semiarid 16 inches rainfall yearly Winters mild to cold/ Summers hot Productive farmland

Desert Hot days/ cold nights Rain shadows

Mediterranean Mediterranean Sea Summer dry & hot Winter cool & rainy

Marine West Coast Cloudy, foggy, damp- near ocean Constant temp due to warm ocean currents Bad moods- grunge music

Humid Subtropical Long summers of humidity and heat Hurricanes

Humid Continental Four seasons Arctic cold clash w/ tropical air masses Latitude affects temp

Highlands Latitude & elevation affect temp Rain shadow Higher elevation- lower temperature

Subarctic Evergreen forests Summers short and cool Winters long and cold- 8 months

Tundra Flat, treeless lands Permafrost Summer last only few weeks- 40 F

Ice Cap Snow, ice, & permanently freezing temp Polar deserts- less then 10 in precipitation F below freezing
