What types of climate can be divided into?

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: it is warm and humid all year round, and the precipitation is evenly distributed.

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

The causes of different climate types

1, solar radiation:

If the land is exposed to strong sunlight, the ground temperature will be high; If the sun is weak, the ground temperature will be low. The temperature of seawater is stable because it has strong heat transfer ability.

When the land is exposed to strong sunlight, resulting in high land temperature, the air on the land expands and rises. At this time, the air on the sea surface is relatively heavy, and the air on the sea surface flows into the land from the sea surface along the surface. The lower temperature on the sea surface reduces the air above the sea surface due to contraction, while the air above the ground rises due to air expansion caused by high temperature, so the air at high altitude flows into the ocean from the mainland.

On the other hand, if the ground temperature is lower than the ocean temperature due to the weak sunlight on the land, the air above the ocean will rise, while the air above the land will fall, and the air on the surface will flow from the land to the ocean.

Therefore, the characteristics of temperature and precipitation in different places are different. According to these characteristics, different climates in different places are divided into several types.

2. Atmospheric circulation

3. Underlying surface (land and sea location, ocean current and topography)
