Generation

The Köppen climate classification is a system that divides Earth's climates into five main types based on temperature and precipitation patterns: tropical (A), dry (B), temperate (C), continental (D), and polar (E). Each main type has subcategories indicated by additional letters that describe specific characteristics like seasonal rainfall patterns or temperature extremes. For example, "Cfa" represents a humid subtropical climate with hot summers and no dry season, while "BWh" indicates a hot desert. This system is widely used because it correlates well with vegetation zones and is based on readily available weather data.
