Characteristics of main climate types in the world

The main climate types and characteristics in the world are as follows:

1, tropical desert climate: high temperature all year round, hot and dry, and little rain.

2. Mediterranean climate: hot and dry in summer and mild and rainy in winter.

3. Tropical (sparse) grassland climate: high temperature all year round, with distinct wet and dry seasons.

4. Tropical rain forest climate: it is hot and rainy all year round.

5. Tropical monsoon climate: high temperature throughout the year, with dry and rainy seasons.

6. Subtropical monsoon and subtropical humid climate: hot and rainy in summer and mild and rainy in winter.

7. Temperate maritime climate: mild and rainy all year round.

8. Temperate monsoon climate: hot and rainy in summer and cold and dry in winter.

9. Temperate continental climate: Leng Xia is hot in winter, with large annual temperature difference, drought and little rain, and precipitation is scarce and concentrated in summer.

10. Coniferous forest climate in sub-cold zone: winter is long and cold, summer is short and cool, and precipitation is scarce and concentrated in summer.

1 1. Polar tundra climate: winter is long and cold, summer is short of low temperature, and precipitation is scarce and concentrated in the hottest month.

12. polar ice sheet climate: extremely cold all year round, with little precipitation, most of which is less than100 mm. ..

13, plateau and mountain climate: the vertical change of climate is obvious, and the temperature decreases with the elevation and increases with the elevation. (Generally, the temperature drops by 0.6℃ for every increase of 100 meter. ) Low temperature throughout the year, with small annual temperature difference and large daily temperature difference.

Extended data

Main climate types in China:

Subtropical monsoon.

China, South China and East China all belong to this climate type. The annual accumulated temperature is between 4500-8000℃, and the average temperature in Leng Yue is 0- 15℃, which is a transitional zone between subtropical zone and temperate zone, and the summer temperature is quite high (average temperature >; =25℃ for at least 6 days, that is, 30 days), and the temperature is quite low in winter.

Temperate monsoon.

North China belongs to this climate type. The annual accumulated temperature is between 3000 and 4500℃. The average temperature in Leng Yue is between-28 and-0℃, and the average temperature in summer is still above 22℃. The temperature over 25℃ is relatively rare and relatively warm and cool. In recent years, due to climate warming and other reasons, high temperature weather frequently occurs in southern North China, but the average temperature still does not exceed 25℃.
