Each petal is a mile in length from the center. There’s also a two-mile long “stem” shaped peninsula that branches off from the bottom of the island that people fish off of. C. I picked this area because it’s so close to Greece making trade accessible. Winters are warm but rainy. Drought is very rare, so crops are almost always successful.
The tropical climate is characterized by constant high temperatures. All twelve months have an average precipitation of at least 60 mm (2.4 in), whereas in the savanna climate, the annual precipitation is contrastingly 25 mm. In the dry climates (group B) contains: arid and semiarid climates. Desert regions on the West coast are much cooler, due to the nearby presence of cold ocean currents and frequent cloud cover. The mesothermal climate (group C) consists: mediterranean, humid-subtropic, and oceanic climates.
Southern California Southern California is a unique and unusual region. It is a perfect place to live. Southern California is different than any other state in America.

It has five seasons: two springs, two summers and a season of rain, unlike other places where there are four different seasons: spring, summer, fall and winter.
EXERCISE 10 PROBLEMS – PART I The following questions are based on the maps of average January sea-level temperatures (Figure 10-1) and average July sea-level temperatures (Figure 10-2): 1. Is the temperature contrast between the equator and the Arctic region greatest in the winter or summer? Temperature contrast between the equator and the Arctic region is greatest in the winter. Temperatures near or at the equator only change a few degrees between winter and summer, while the Arctic region changes up to 40 degrees between the seasons. 2.
In general, this valley has a dry and mild climate. Summers are dry and tend to be hot. Winters are cool, with occasional light snowfall. Maximum precipitation is in late fall and early winter. However, due to the Cascades, total precipitation quantities are small.
They often think about what is sometimes referred to as the Gold Coast, the shoreline of the state where magnificent homes overlooking the ocean are owned by names like the Bushes and Rockefellers. What people often don’t think of is the extremely large, rural area north of the city of Bangor. This portion of Maine is made up of several counties constituting more than half the state’s geographical size, and also the majority of the state’s poverty. There are some variances as to what exactly is considered “northern Maine”. To some it consists of the counties north of Bangor, to others, it is anyone “living north, east and west of Waterville” [ (Spruce, 1994) ], as seen in Figure 1.
Bali and Sumba are both islands of Indonesia but they both have a very contrast lifestyle. Bali is one of the wealthiest islands of Indonesia and is a favourite tour destination for Australians. It has a volcanic, fertile soil, and high rainfall that is most suitable for agriculture. While Sumba, is mainly savannah grassland and it is one of the poorest islands in Indonesia. The dry season lasts nine months and drought is a constant threat.

The park extends along over 41km of coastline. Some area of the park is 24km north of Charlotte town. Prince Edward Island Park protects a representative sample of the Maritime Plain Natural Region. Second point, the climate region of Prince Edward Island Park is Atlantic Maritime. Prince Edward Island Park have moderate temperatures.
The climate in Denmark is very consistent throughout the country mostly because it is a relatively small and there is not much chance for the weather to change. Because it is so far north, this means that in the late months of the year such as December, the sun will only show itself for 7 hours, however in the summer the sun will appear for a whole 17 hours. The amount of sun that presents itself throughout the year makes it so that the seasons are very different and the temperature changes dramatically from winter so summer. The average temperature in the month of July is approximately 18 degrees Celsius (64.4 Fahrenheit). As this is only the average temperature it can get to be between 26 and 30 Celsius (78-86 Fahrenheit) during the month of July and throughout the summer.
