Anywhere in the World Climates (3) Semi-Arid (Steppe) Arid (Desert) Highland

Semiarid Around deserts/Inside continents Hot summers and cooler winters Grassland, few trees Chaparral

Desert 10 in. or less rain. Summer warm-hot. Winter quite cool- freezing Scrubby short bushes and cacti

Highland High mountain regions Greatly varied temperatures Mixed Forest to Evergreen Timberline

Low Latitude Climates (2) Tropical Wet (Tropical Rainforest) Tropical Wet and Dry (Tropical Savannah)

Tropical Wet Low lat. Always Hot Tropical Rain Forest Canopy of Trees Dark on the lithosphere

Tropical Wet and Dry Humid Tropics-T.W.&D. Warm all year, Rainy/Dry Seasons Tropical grassland with scattered broccoli shaped trees

Mid-Latitude Climates (4) Mediterranean Humid Subtropical Humid Continental Marine West Coast

Mediterranean W. Coasts Dry sun warm summers/ mild wetter winters Scrub & thin grass Woody bush trees Grapes/Olives

Humid Subtropical East coasts mid lats. Hot H. summers/ Mild H. winters Mixed forest Is it like Texas?

Humid Continental East Coasts Upper mid lats. 4 seasons, long cold winter & S. W. summers Mixed forest Trees>4-6 stories tall

Marine West Coast West Coast upper-mid lats. Cloudy mild summers/ cool rainy winters Temperate Evergreen/mix ed Forests

High Latitude Climates (3) Subarctic Tundra Ice Cap

Subarctic Interior/East coasts High Lats. Extreme Temps., long cold winters Northern evergreen forest with permafrost

Tundra High lats. Coasts Cold all year Moss, low shrubs, lichen Permafrost

Ice Cap Polar regions Freezing cold year round Ice caps are ice. Lichens
