tropical zone
equatorial zone
The polar zone has very low temperatures (below - 10°C on average), low precipitation (usually less than 250 mm per year), and strong, cold winds. The sub - polar zone has cooler temperatures (average around 0 - 10°C), moderate precipitation (250 - 500 mm per year), and frequent storms. The temperate zone has moderate temperatures (average 10 - 20°C), moderate to high precipitation (500 - 1500 mm per year), and variable wind patterns with occasional storms. The subtropical zone has warm to hot temperatures (average 15 - 30°C), high precipitation in some areas (up to 1500 mm or more), and may experience tropical storms or hurricanes. The tropical zone has consistently high temperatures (above 20°C), high precipitation (1500 - 3000 mm per year), and is prone to tropical cyclones. The equatorial zone has very high temperatures (around 25 - 30°C), extremely high precipitation (over 2000 mm per year), and relatively calm winds near the surface.
