Tropical grasslands, also known as savannas, are located in subtropical and tropical regions between 7 and 20 degrees north and south of the equator. Savannas cover large areas of Africa, Australia, South America, and Central America. The climate is characterized by hot, wet summers and cool, dry winters with average temperatures between 22 to 37 degrees Celsius. The rainy season occurs from May to September in the northern hemisphere and October to March in the southern hemisphere. Natural vegetation includes tall grasses and scattered short trees that are deciduous and shed leaves during the dry season. Many native people in savanna regions are pastoralists and cattle ranching is an important economic activity.

Veld
The document summarizes key facts about the Veld grasslands region of South Africa, including:
- The climate is mild and temperate due to coastal winds and oceans, with warm wet summers and cold dry winters, limiting natural vegetation to grasses.
- Major industries include mining for gold and diamonds, with Johannesburg and Kimberley as important centers for gold and diamond mining, respectively.
- Agriculture also plays a role through livestock grazing, although frost limits the growing season for plants.
Climate Regions
This document describes 12 major world climate regions defined by temperature and precipitation patterns: 1) Tropical Wet, 2) Tropical Wet & Dry, 3) Arid, 4) Semiarid, 5) Marine West Coast, 6) Mediterranean, 7) Humid Subtropical, 8) Humid Continental, 9) Subarctic, 10) Ice Cap, 11) Tundra, 12) Highlands. Each climate region is characterized by distinct temperature and precipitation levels that support unique biomes and human activities.
Example
This chapter discusses the climate and vegetation of Africa. It talks about factors that influence climate such as distance from the equator, elevation, and rainfall. Certain geographic regions in Africa like rainforests, savannas, and deserts are described. Savannas receive some rainfall while deserts like the Sahara, Namib, and Kalahari receive very little and consist primarily of sand and small bushes. The climate and lack of water make living in these desert regions very challenging.
Hot climates
The document describes four different climates: equatorial, humid tropical, dry tropical (savannah), and hot desert. The equatorial climate has high constant temperatures year-round, abundant rainfall, and luxuriant vegetation including very tall trees forming dense canopies. The humid tropical climate is similar but with less dense forests and smaller trees. The dry tropical/savannah climate has high temperatures, a long dry season and shorter rainy season, and features grasslands with scattered trees and bushes. The hot desert climate is defined by very high temperatures, low precipitation, and scarce vegetation that has adapted to drought conditions.
Spanish landscape and climate
The document discusses several different climate types found around the world and in Spain specifically. It describes the subtropical climate of the Canary Islands, which has mild temperatures year-round above 17°C and low, irregular rainfall that increases with altitude. The continental climate in central Spain features large temperature differences between winter and summer, with cold winters below zero and hot, dry summers and scarce rainfall concentrated in spring and autumn. The Mediterranean climate along the Mediterranean coast has soft winter temperatures and high summer temperatures with variable rainfall that is dry in summer and wet in autumn and spring, supporting a forested landscape.
Biomes
This document summarizes the main biomes (regions) of the world, which include polar ice caps, tundra, forests, grasslands, deserts, and aquatic biomes. It provides details on the defining characteristics, climates, vegetation, and animals found in each biome type. Some of the specific biomes mentioned include boreal forests, taiga, temperate deciduous forests, prairies, steppes, savannas, rainforests, wetlands, estuaries, and oceans.
Landscapes
This document describes different climate zones and their characteristics. It discusses tropical climates found near the equator with hot temperatures year-round and rainy and dry seasons. It also describes desert climates found near the tropics and in temperate zones with little rainfall and extreme heat and cold. Finally, it discusses polar climates found at the poles with very cold temperatures year-round and snowfall several days a week.
Chapter 20 review
The document summarizes life in the Sahara desert and Sahel region of Africa. It describes the geography of the Sahara, which covers 3.5 million square miles and borders the Red Sea and Atlantic Ocean. It also discusses the climate and environment of deserts, oases, and the Sahel. People have adapted to the harsh conditions by developing nomadic lifestyles, growing crops in oases, and practicing pastoralism. However, human activities like overgrazing, deforestation, and cash cropping are exacerbating desertification and threatening the livelihoods of those living in the Sahel.
Climates and landscapes on the Earth
There are several climate zones on Earth defined by the amount of sunlight received. The hot zone near the equator receives direct sunlight and has tropical rainforests. Temperate zones between the tropics and polar circles experience seasonal changes in sunlight. Cold zones near the poles receive minimal sunlight. Landscapes vary based on climate - equatorial zones have dense rainforests while deserts have sparse vegetation due to low rainfall. Rivers and vegetation in different climate zones reflect the availability of water.
An Ideal Climate
The document summarizes different climate types including tropical, Mediterranean, temperate, hot and dry, and provides examples of places that have good climates such as Ecuador, Panama, Spain, and Mexico. It describes the typical weather patterns, temperature ranges, rainfall levels, and vegetation for each climate type. Places highlighted as having ideal climates included Ecuador for its variety of climates across different regions, Panama for its tropical weather without hurricanes or extreme weather, and Spain and parts of Mexico for their Mediterranean climates.
Ecologist
The document summarizes the climate and characteristics of tropical rainforests. It notes that tropical rainforests receive about 250 cm of rain annually due to warm, humid air near the equator. The dense tree cover intercepts much of the rainfall before it reaches the ground. Trees can grow over 164 feet tall in the hot, wet climate that averages 77 degrees Fahrenheit year-round and never drops below 64 degrees.

This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
