6. ANALYZING CLIMATE GRAPHS NAME OF FORMULAFORMULA Mean Annual Temperature (MAT) Add monthly temperatures ÷ by 12 *Round answer to 1 decimal place Annual Temperature Range (ATR) Take the highest (warmest) monthly temperature and − (subtract) from it the lowest (coldest) monthly temperature. *Remember 2 negatives make a positive! For Example: 20.1°C - (-3.4°C) = 20.1 + 3.4 = 23.5°C if the number is larger than 25°C = Continental Climate if the number is smaller than 25  C = Maritime Climate Total Annual Precipitation (TAP) Add (+) all monthly precipitation totals together. less than 1000mm = Continental Climate greater than 1000mm = Maritime Climate
