Climate Graphs of The World

The document outlines different climate types including tropical climates with warm temperatures year-round and either equatorial, monsoon, or wet/dry precipitation patterns; arid climates with low precipitation across desert and cold desert types; coastal climates with moderate temperatures and precipitation in cool-moderate, Mediterranean, or warm-wet variations; and continental climates with extreme seasonal temperature variations and low precipitation in cool-severe or warm-dry forms. A monsoon climate is distinguished from tropical wet/dry by having significantly higher summer precipitation.

Tropical Climates: Warm Temperatures all year.

Equatorial

Tropical Wet / Dry

Monsoon

Note: In order to differentiate between a Monsoon climate and a Tropical Wet / Dry climate, look at
the precipitation amounts in the summer months. There is considerably more for the Monsoon
climate such that the scale is changed to accommodate the larger quantities of precipitation.

Arid Climates: Low Precipitation all year.


Desert

Cold Desert

Coastal Climates: Moderate Temperature Ranges with Moderate Precipitation.


Cool Climate Moderate Winter

Mediterranean

Warm Climate Wet

Continental Climates: Extreme Temperature Ranges with Low Precipitation.
