Most parts of Europe have temperate maritime climate, as well as Mediterranean climate, temperate continental climate, polar climate and plateau mountain climate. Temperate maritime climate is the most typical. The climate in most parts of Europe is mild and humid.

Most of Europe has a temperate maritime climate, but there are also Mediterranean climate, temperate continental climate, polar climate and plateau mountain climate. Temperate maritime climate is the most typical. The climate in most parts of Europe is mild and humid. Most of them are located in temperate zone, which is the continent with the widest distribution area of marine climate in the world.

Because of the vast plain, the humid westerly wind blowing from the Atlantic Ocean can go deep into the inland, and the influence of the warm current of the North Atlantic Ocean makes the whole coastal area of Western Europe very humid, and the European continent has changed from a maritime climate to a continental climate from west to east.

Affected by the ocean, Europe has a mild climate, abundant rainfall, high relative humidity and cloudy weather, including the inland areas in the northern Alps. The eastern part of the European continent has little rainfall, low relative humidity and clear sky. This climate phenomenon exists widely in the vast hilly areas of Europe and Asia. These influences are distributed along the north-south belt, passing through Norway, Denmark and Germany. The subtropical high system is the main moving season in the southern Alps, so the rainfall in this area changes obviously with the seasons, with rainy winter and dry summer.

Temperate maritime climate characteristics: warm in winter and cool in summer, with small annual temperature difference; It rains all year round, with more rain in winter; The annual and daily changes of temperature are very small; The seasonal distribution of precipitation is relatively uniform; Cloudy weather and high humidity.
