Climatic characteristics of tropical rain forest

The climate characteristics of tropical rain forest are hot and rainy all year round, with small temperature difference.

The monthly average temperature is between 25-28℃, the annual precipitation can reach more than 2000 mm, the rainfall season is evenly distributed, and there is no dry season. Tropical rain forests are mainly distributed in the tropical climate zone within the range of 5- 10 degrees in the northern and southern latitudes of the equator. It is hot and rainy all year round here, and there is no obvious seasonal difference. The average annual temperature is 25 to? At 30℃, the average temperature in Leng Yue is also above 18℃, and the extreme maximum temperature is mostly below 36℃.

The annual precipitation can reach more than 2000 mm. The seasons are evenly distributed, there is no dry season and the weather is monotonous. Controlled by the equatorial ocean air mass all year round, the wind is weak and the seasonal phase remains unchanged. Basically, it's sultry and sunny every morning, and then the cumulus clouds get thicker and thicker, and it rains cats and dogs in the afternoon. It was a little cold after the rain, and it was the same the next day.

Causes and distribution of climate formation in tropical rain forest

Being located in the tropics is the main reason for the perennial high temperature in the tropical rain forest climate. Affected by equatorial low pressure all the year round, updraft prevails, which is the main reason for the rainy climate in tropical rain forest all the year round.

The tropical rain forest climate is mainly distributed between the north latitude 10 on both sides of the equator (near the equator). It mainly appears in Amazon Plain in South America, Congo Basin and Gulf of Guinea in Africa, most parts of Malay Archipelago in Asia and southern Malay Peninsula.
