CLIMATE

2. Climate is the average weather in a place over many years. While the weather
can change in just a few hours, climate takes hundreds, thousands, even
millions of years to change.
Sometimes the climate of a place is described with graphs like this. This graph shows
how temperature usually changes over a year for a particular place on Earth.

FACTORS THAT AFFECT CLIMATE

4. Plenty of sunshine
50 to 260 inches (125 to 660 cm.) of
rain falls yearly
The change between seasons are not
extreme
Without the extremes of temperature
and precipitation ( rain and snow ) .
WHAT MAKES A CLIMATE IDEAL
Based on the factors that affected climate, what makes climate ideal in my opinion are :
Eventhough sometimes it
can causing flood

Hot and Dry

6. Much of the equatorial belt experiences hot
and humid weather. There is abundant
rainfall due to the active convection of air
that takes place there, and during certain
periods, thunderstorms can occur every day.
Nevertheless, this belt still receives
considerable sunshine, and with the
excessive precipitation, provides ideal
growing conditions for luxuriant vegetation.
The principal regions with an equatorial
climate are the Amazon Basin in Brazil, the
Congo Basin in West Africa and Indonesia.
.The primary distinguishing characteristic
of these climates is all months have average
temperatures above 18°C (64°F).
TROPICAL CLIMATE

7. Good Points
Low air pressure and amendments Operate
slowly and irregularly .
The constant rain and direct sunlight at the
equator allow tropical rainforests to develop.
Temperatures stay the same throughout most
of the year because these areas are found
along the equator and receive constant direct
sunlight. (Warmth throughout the entire year )
Bad points
During certain periods, thunderstorms can
occur every day
Usually the dry season is longer. Areas near
the equator receive constant direct sunlight
and therefore, heat
The temperature was perfect for bacteries to
grow and evoke many disease.

8. The Mediterranean climate is a special type of
climate that describes a regime of hot summer
drought and mid winter rain in the mid latitudes,
north of the subtropical highs. This climate occurs
most noticeably in the regions around the
Mediterranean, from where the climate gets its name,
but also in coastal areas of California, South Africa
and southern parts of Australia.
In summer, the high pressure belts drift northwards
in the northern hemisphere, southwards in the
southern hemisphere, They are coincident with
substantially higher temperatures and little rainfall.
During the winter, the high pressure belts drift
equatorward, and substantial rainfall occurs. Whist
usually mild, such areas can experience cold snaps
when exposed to the icy winds of the large
continental interiors.
The primary distinguishing characteristic of these
climates is the coldest month has an average
temperature between 18°C (64°F) and -3°C (27°F).
MEDITERRANEAN CLIMATE

9. Good points
• During the winter the water that was warmed up all summer
moves in and keeps the land warm and often brings rain
• In the winter , the humidity is low.
• If the humidity is low, then the rate of transpiration
INCREASED And air absorption and substances - minerals
will also be increasing. It will increase the availability of
nutrients for plant growth .
Bad points
• During the summer, cold currents keep the climate mild and
dry, almost no rain falls during the summer
• Sun intensity is high, especially in inland areas, due to clear,
cloudless skies and low humidity
• Soils are generally low in humus, neutral to alkaline in pH,
low in biological activity, low in nitrogen and phosphorous,
and slow in the decomposition of organic matter.
• Homogeneous plant
• The temperature fluctuation is too extreme

10. Temperate climates are those without extremes of
temperature and precipitation. The changes
between summer and winter are invigorating
without being frustratingly extreme. There are
two types of temperate climate: maritime and
continental. The maritime climate is strongly
influenced by the oceans, which maintain fairly
steady temperatures across the seasons. Since the
prevailing winds are westerly in the temperate
zones, the western edge of continents in these
areas experience most commonly the maritime
climate. Such regions include western Europe, in
particular the UK, and western North America at
latitudes between 40° and 60° north.
In these climates, summer temperatures are
warm and winters are cold. The primary
distinguishing characteristic of these climates is
the average temperature of warmest month
exceeds 10°C (50°F), and average temperature of
coldest is below -3°C (27°F).
TEMPERATE CLIMATE

11. Good Points
Without extremes of temperature and precipitation
(rain and snow).
The changes between summer and winter are generally
invigorating without being frustratingly extreme
Usually, Temperate climate areas receive regular rain
that supports thick forests and a wide variety of plant
life including evergreen trees (conifers) such as
spruce, cedar, pine, redwood. Many species of ferns
and grasses also grow in this area.
Bad Points
Easily exposed to solar radiation and sunburn
Winter happened longer than summer
The soil is not fertile

12. These are climates that experience little precipitation
during most of the year. Further, potential losses of
water from evaporation and transpiration greatly
exceed atmospheric input.
Deserts are areas where the rainfall is too low to
sustain any vegetation at all, or only very scanty
scrub. The rainfall in desert areas is less than 25 mm
or 10 inches per year, and some years may experience
no rainfall at all. The hot deserts are situated in the
subtropical high pressure belts where there is
unbroken sunshine for the whole year. Such areas
include the Sahara, Saudi Arabia, large parts of Iran
and Iraq, northwest India, California, South Africa
and much of Australia. Here, maximum temperatures
of 40 to 45�C are common, although during colder
periods of the year, night-time temperatures can
drop to freezing or below due to the exceptional
radiation loss under the skies.
HOT AND DRY CLIMATE

13. Good Points
Habitat for Specialized Flora and Fauna :
Plants that live in the desert have special
abilities that allow them to live in such a hot
and dry place. As well as the animal.
For indigenous people : make the immune
system more robust because it was used by the
hot sun
Abundance of Soil Nutrients
Bad Points
It have very little rainfall, making the climate
extremely dry, and hard for plants and
animals to survive.
There are very few plants in hot and dry
deserts. Often, the only things that can
survive are short shrubs and trees.
Dry air, causes and exacerbates numerous
problems in humans, including skin irritation,
eye irritation, nose bleeds, etc.
Lack of Water

PLACES WHICH HAVE GOOD
CLIMATE

15. ECUADOR: THE LAND OF
ETERNAL SPRING
Touted as the land of Eternal Spring, Ecuador has a reputation for perfect weather. Indeed,
along the spine of the Andes the weather tends to stay cool and temperatures change little
throughout the year.
In the expat hotspot of Cuenca (pictured), for example, you’ll find folks enjoying the days
that average a high of 70 F and drop to around 50 F at night. Everyone brings along a light
sweater or jacket no matter the temperature because the weather can change throughout the
day and layering makes it easy to stay comfortable.

16. But climate can vary in the Andes depending largely on altitude.
If you drop from the 8,400-foot elevation of Cuenca to the
5,000 feet of Vilcabamba you’ll notice quite a change. The
weather is still mild and comfortable, but warmer with highs
running in the upper 70s F and nightly lows of 60 F.
Eternal spring is not all you’ll find in this country. With four
distinct zones (Andes Mountains, Amazon Basin, Pacific Coast,
and the Galapagos Islands) Ecuador has it all. Along the coast
you’ll find warm days with a bit of humidity added in making the
same temperatures feel warmer than they would in the highlands.
The northern coastal town of Canoa sees average highs of close
to 80 F, but with the equatorial sun and humid air, a dip in the
ocean feels perfectly refreshing. The only items of clothing you’ll
need to bring for a stay on Ecuador’s coast are shorts, t-shirts,
flip-flops, and swimwear.
On the opposite side of the Andes range lies the Amazonian
jungle. A few inviting towns line the edge of the great rainforest
and provide ideal weather for those looking for consistent
warmth. Though average highs are only 60 F throughout the
year, the humidity makes it feel much warmer and again shorts, t-
shirts, and sunglasses are standard here. Just be sure to bring a
raincoat as it is, after all, the rainforest.

17. Situated close to the equator, Panama enjoys a year-round tropical climate. You’ll
never have to shovel snow or thaw frozen pipes here, and you’ll never pay another
heating bill. And since Panama sits outside the hurricane zone, extreme weather is rare
(even it don’t have any tornadoes or tsunamis). it do, however, have plenty of sunshine
and clear blue skies, with a healthy amount of rainfall sprinkled in!
Although Panama is a small country you have a variety of comfortable climates from
which to choose. Some prefer to live in warmer parts of the country, such as Panama
City and David. Daytime temperatures in the low-lying areas throughout the country
range from 75 F to 90 F, with a country-wide average of 84 F. Night-time
temperatures range from 65 F to 75 F.
PANAMA: TROPICAL
RETIREMENT HAVEN

18. If you’re looking for a cool-weather haven, look no
further than the highlands of the Cordillero Central
mountain range. Towns in these highland areas—such
as Boquete, Cerro Azul, El Valle, and Santa
Fe (pictured)—feature a noticeably fresher climate due
to their elevation. For many expats and retirees these
places have the perfect spring-like climate, with
daytime temperatures ranging from 65 F to 80 F and
nights as cool as 55 F at the higher elevations.
The climate year is divided into two distinct seasons.
The rainy season—known as wintertime or el
invierno—starts in May and continues through
November. The summertime—el verano—starts in
December and ends when the rains return in May.
During the wintertime it’s often cooler due to the
rainfall and cloud cover. The mornings are typically
sunny and warm, with cool rains in the afternoon or
evening, assuring a comfortable night’s sleep. In the
summertime we get little rain, so outdoor activities
take center stage. Many of Panama’s festivals and fairs
take place during the dry season, families take
vacations, and the beach is a popular destination

19. Thanks to its geographic location, with the Tropic of Cancer running right across the middle, Mexico offers a wide
range of climates. Add to that its varied terrain—with mountains, desert, jungles, and everything in between—and
you have a country with every sort of climate you might want.
Much of northern Mexico—the region directly south of the United States—has a dry desert climate, with hot
summers and chilly winters. But the northern part of the Baja Peninsula, along the Pacific Coast, enjoys near-perfect
weather, like that of San Diego, California. That great climate is one of the reasons why Rosarito and Ensenada, on
the Pacific Coast an hour or less from the U.S. border, have been so popular with expats.
Central Mexico enjoys a temperate climate. The mountainous interior is home to numerous Spanish-colonial cities,
most of which sit at elevations between 3,000 and 7,000 feet. For much of the year, temperatures here range from
the high 60s F to the low- to mid-80s F. Even in winter, temperatures rarely drop to freezing—and humidity is low.
You usually never need more than a light jacket here.
MEXICO: SOMETHING FOR
EVERYONE

20. Along most of Mexico’s coasts, as well as in far-
southern Mexico (the Yucatán Peninsula), the
weather is semi-tropical—humid and hot. May
to October is the rainy season in these areas,
with hot, sometimes-cloudy days punctuated by
brief but intense rainstorms. (It seldom rains
steadily all day.) Winter is the dry season, with
lower humidity, lower temperatures, and sunny
days. Along the central Pacific Coast—in Puerto
Vallarta (pictured), for instance—expect average
temperatures from the low 70s F in winter to
the low 80s F in summer. In the Yucatán,
average temperatures can run 10 or more
degrees hotter.
Mexico lies in a hurricane zone, with the
hurricane/tropical storm season running June
to December. Mexico’s Caribbean Coast is its
most hurricane-prone, followed by the Pacific
Coast and the Gulf Coast, in that order

21. With terrain that varies from mountains to plains to sandy beaches, Spain offers a diverse climate,
ensuring something for everyone.
On Spain’s long coastline (and as a peninsula, it has plenty of coast), temperatures tend to be mild,
with no temperature extremes. Weather is generally hotter in the south and cooler in the north…but
nowhere along the coast are the average summer highs and average winter lows more than about 25 F
to 30 F apart. This reliably mild weather is one reason why Spain’s coasts are so popular with expats.
On the southern coast—the Costa del Sol and the Costa de la Luz, for instance—average temperatures
vary from the 80s F in summer to the 60s F in winter. These coasts are famous for offering more than
300 days of sunshine a year, with low humidity. This means you can enjoy an outdoor lifestyle year-
round.
SPAIN: COOL MOUNTAIN TOWNS AND
WARM MEDITERRANEAN BEACHES

22. If cool, moist weather like that of the U.S.’s Pacific
Northwest is more your style, then head to Spain’s
northwest coast, so-called “Green Spain.” Here lush green
hills roll right down to the sea, rain is frequent, and the
weather is cool and mild. Average temperatures range
from the high 60s F and low 70s F in summer to the 40s F
and 50s F in winter.
Spain’s vast interior has a harsher, more continental
climate, marked by wide temperature extremes. Winters in
northern and central Spain can drop to freezing, with
occasional snow—while summer temperatures in central
and southern Spain can soar to over 100 F at the hottest
part of the day (when shops are usually closed for siesta).
Spring and fall in the interior, however, is glorious, with
lush spring vegetation, vibrant fall colors, and mild
weather in both seasons. These are perfect times to visit
the interior’s many historic towns.
Mountain ranges—some of them national parks—can be
found all over Spain. The Pyrenees, which separate Spain
and France, are snow-covered in winter and are popular
for skiing, as are the Guadarrama Mountains outside
Madrid and some ranges in southern Spain. These last are
just a few hours from sunny Mediterranean beaches.
La Playa de Rota – Costa de la Luz
Costa Bianca-Guadales

23. In my opinion, based on the “Places Which have good climate”. The place
that has the best cimate is :
“Panama”
The reasons I choose this tropical climate’s place are, because among the four
other places panama is the most convenient and safest place, Panama sits
outside the hurricane zone, extreme weather is rare unlike mexico that was lies
in a hurricane zone, with the hurricane/tropical storm season running June to
December. Or like Spain’s vast interior that has a harsher, more continental
climate, marked by wide temperature extremes.
It do, however, have plenty of sunshine and clear blue skies, with a healthy
amount of rainfall sprinkled in!
