QuestionClimatology / classification

Global climates are classified on the basis of:

  1. (a) annual averages in temperature and precipitation only.
  2. (b) annual averages in temperature only.
  3. (c) seasonal variations in temperature and precipitation only.
  4. (d) annual averages and seasonal variations in temperature and precipitation.

Answer: (d) annual averages and seasonal variations in temperature and precipitation.

Climate classifications (e.g. Köppen) use annual averages and seasonal patterns of both temperature and precipitation, linked to vegetation. Neither alone is enough.
