Ans.

The main feature of the tropical seasonal climate zone (Tropical Monsoon climate):

  • This climate is found in the eastern part of the continents between 80 to 30 ° latitude in both hemispheres.
  • Summer average temperature is between 27°C – 30°C and winter average temperature is between 5°C to 18°C.
  • Thus, clear seasons are found here. The average annual rainfall varies between 100-150°cm.
  • The oceanic regions and the windward regions of the mountains receive more rainfall.

Kolkata is the representative city of this climate.  The temperature here remains high from March to October, and most of the rainfall occurs between the months of June to September.  From November to February the temperature is also low and the amount of rainfall is almost negligible.  The temperature and rainfall conditions in the above months are characteristic of the warm monsoon climate of the northern hemisphere.
