Detailed explanation-1: -The tropics are regions of Earth that lie roughly in the middle of the globe. The tropics between the latitude lines of the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn . The tropics include the Equator and parts of North America, South America, Africa, Asia, and Australia.
Detailed explanation-2: -Type A Climates: Usually found near the equator. Temperatures are hot and area is very wet. The tropical rainforests are located in these zones. The reason for all the wet weather is the location of the ITCZ (Intertropical Convergence Zone) over this area most of the year.
Detailed explanation-3: -Tropical climates are defined by a monthly average temperature of 18 °C (64.4 °F) or higher in the coolest month, and feature hot temperatures all year-round. Annual precipitation is often abundant in tropical climates, and shows a seasonal rhythm but may have seasonal dryness to varying degrees.
Detailed explanation-4: -Equatorial regions are the regions located on or near the equator. Equatorial regions have hot and wet climate. The Amazon Basin (South America), the Congo Basin (Africa) and some regions of Asia are located in equatorial regions.
Detailed explanation-5: -The Equatorial Climate is characterised by hot average temperature all year round and high monthly precipitation, typically no less than 60 mm a month with annual precipitation tending to be over 2000mm. The diurnal temperature range is greater than the annual temperature range.
