Question

here is your chance to prove that you know how to interpret an unknown climate graph.
mystery cities 1 and 2:
these two \mystery cities\ are actual places on earth. for each city you will:

1. create a climate graph for mystery city using the blank graph. remember that the bars show precipitation and the line shows average temperature.
2. calculate the annual temperature range and total annual precipitation
3. using the calculations and your notes, succinctly describe the climate and possible location of the mystery city (tropical, temperate, continental, polar, dry) and the reasons for your decision.
4. would the \mystery city\ be an appealing vacation destination for the canadian traveler? explain your answer using evidence.

data for mystery city 1

month	j	f	m	a	m	j	j	a	s	o	n	d
precipitation (mm)	52	42	53	55	95	162	120	155	162	118	54	46

calculations for mystery city 1:
annual temperature range =
total annual precipitation =
describe the climate and guess the possible global climate zone (polar, dry, tropical, temperate, continental) =
would this be a good vacation spot =

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate annual temperature range

Find the maximum and minimum temperatures. Maximum temperature = 28°C, minimum temperature = 21°C. Annual temperature range = 28 - 21 = 7°C.

Step2: Calculate total annual precipitation

Sum up the monthly precipitation values: 52+42+53+55+95+162+120+155+162+118+54+46 = 1114 mm.

Step3: Describe the climate and guess the climate - zone

The temperatures are relatively high throughout the year (ranging from 21 - 28°C) and there is significant precipitation. This suggests a tropical climate.

Step4: Evaluate as a vacation spot

For a Canadian traveler, the warm temperatures and relatively high - but not overly extreme - precipitation could make it an appealing vacation destination, especially if they enjoy warm and humid climates.

Answer:

Annual Temperature Range = 7°C
Total Annual Precipitation = 1114 mm
Describe the climate and guess the possible global climate zone = Tropical climate
Would this be a good vacation spot = Yes, could be appealing for those who like warm and humid climates.
