Trewartha Climate Classification
The Trewartha climate classification (TCC), or the Köppen–Trewartha climate classification (KTC), is a climate classification system first published by American geographer Glenn Thomas Trewartha in 1966. It is a modified version of the Köppen–Geiger system, created to answer some of its deficiencies. The Trewartha system attempts to redefine the middle latitudes to be closer to vegetation zoning and genetic climate systems. Scheme Trewartha's modifications to the 1884 Köppen climate system sought to reclass the middle latitudes into three groups, according to how many months have a mean temperature of or higher: * ''C'' (subtropical)—8 or more months; * ''D'' (temperate)—4 to 7 months; * ''E'' ( boreal climate)—1 to 3 months. The tropical climates and polar climates remained the same as in the original Köppen climate classification. The "highland" climate is ambiguously defined. Newer users of KTC generally omit this option. Group A: Tropical climates This is ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
