Climographs further practice

Front

What is a climograph?

Back

A climograph is a graphical representation of the average temperature and precipitation at a specific location over a period of time, typically a year.

Front

What does the line graph of a climograph represent?

Back

The line graph of a climograph represents the average temperature of a location over time.

Front

What does the bar graph of a climograph represent?

Back

The bar graph of a climograph represents the average precipitation of a location over time.

Front

How do you determine the highest temperature from a climograph?

Back

The highest temperature can be determined by identifying the peak point on the temperature line of the climograph.

Front

What is the significance of the degree difference between average high and average low temperatures?

Back

The degree difference indicates the temperature range of a location, which can affect the climate and ecosystem.

Front

In which month is there typically the most precipitation in a climograph?

Back

The month with the most precipitation can be identified by the tallest bar in the precipitation section of the climograph.

Front

What does a climograph with a large temperature range indicate about the climate?

Back

A large temperature range indicates a climate with significant seasonal variation, often found in continental climates.

Front

What type of biome is characterized by average temperatures below zero for several months?

Back

Biomes such as tundra or polar regions are characterized by average temperatures below zero for several months.

Front

How can you identify the wettest month on a climograph?

Back

The wettest month can be identified by the highest bar in the precipitation section of the climograph.

Front

What is the relationship between temperature and precipitation in a climograph?

Back

Typically, higher temperatures can correlate with higher precipitation, especially in tropical climates.
