As you've learned in this chapter, temperature and precipitation are critical factors in determining the distribution of terrestrial biomes. Understanding climate graphs and what they tell us is extremely helpful in making sense of these differences. In the figure below, reproduced from figure 5.5 , the graphs show annual patterns in temperature and precipitation (rainfall and snow). They also indicate how much of the year evaporation exceeds precipitation (yellow areas), and when precipitation exceeds evaporation, leaving moisture available for plant growth. Examine these graphs to answer the following questions.
Describe these three climates.
