Climate zones are determined by temperature and rainfall. Using data on temperature and rainfall, climographs can be created to show these climate characteristics. Two example climographs are provided and the document asks how they differ and what climate zone they could represent. The Köppen Climate Classification System is then introduced as the most widely used system for classifying the world's climates based on patterns of vegetation and soils that generally coincide with climatic regions defined by temperature and rainfall.

2. Climate Zones

3. Climate zones are largely
determined by 2 factors:
Temperature
and
Rainfall

7. Using data from
temperature and rainfall,
we can make
climographs

9. Check these 2 graphs.
How are they different?
What do we know about
weather/climate? Which area of
the world could these be from?

11. Areas that have similar rainfall
and temperature will share a
similar climate zone.

12. The Köppen Climate Classification System

13. The most widely used for classifying the
world's climates.
Köppen divided the Earth's surface into
climatic regions that generally coincided
with world patterns of vegetation and
soils.
