Generation

Climate zones are large regions of Earth with similar weather patterns, temperatures, and precipitation levels throughout the year. They are primarily determined by latitude, with the main zones being tropical (near the equator), temperate (mid-latitudes), and polar (near the poles). The **Köppen climate classification system** uses temperature and precipitation data, with a key threshold being the **10°C (50°F) isotherm for the warmest month** to distinguish between temperate and polar climates. Another important formula is that **tropical climates have all months averaging above 18°C (64°F)**.
