LESSON 5: SUMMARY
SUMMARY
The ancient Greeks divided the earth into latitudinal zones based on their perceptions of habitability in particular zones, such as the Frigid Zone, Temperate Zone, and Torrid Zone.
According to the data utilized for classification, climate classification methods can be divided into two types: genetic and empiric.
Genetic systems, while more scientifically desirable, are more complex to implement and less successful overall since they do not rely on simple observation. Hence, he most widely utilized genetic systems are air mass ideas.
The empirical classification system is a classification system that uses data input to calculate the climatic type based on specified class boundaries. Köppen and Trewartha’s systems, for example, have the advantage of being simple to deploy in regions with high-quality and abundant climatic data.
