1. SKILL- How to draw and read Climate Graphs

2. Lets compare the climates of 2 completely different cities of the world Greenwich, England Lat. 51˚ 50' N, Long. 00 ˚ 00' E New Delhi, India Lat. 28˚ 37' N, Long. 77˚ 13' E

3. Greenwich, England Lat. 51˚ 50' N, Long. 00 ˚ 00' E Equator New Delhi, India Lat. 28˚ 37' N, Long. 77˚ 13' E So where are they on a Global scale?

4. So how do both climates compare? The people having their photo taken above at the prime meridian line in Greenwich are wearing clothes for colder weather (Big jackets, high boots and long pants. The people having their photo taken above in New Delhi look to be wearing clothes for hotter weather (short sleeved, light clothed and sunglasses)

5. Lets look at the climate data over a period of 12 months for both cities Pretty boring and not a very convenient way when looking for climatic patterns So that is why Climate Graphs were created.

6. Lets use Climate Graphs to compare the climates

7. Climate graphs show the average temperature and rainfall experienced at a particular place throughout the year. They consist of a line graph showing average monthly temperature and a simple column graph showing average monthly rainfall figures. Climate graphs are constructed using data collected by meteorologists.
