Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The monsoon climate type is characterized by heavy rainfall during a specific season, usually due to the shifting of wind patterns. It is common in parts of South and Southeast Asia, and can experience very high levels of rainfall, breaking records like the one-year record mentioned in the question. The other options (rainforest, Mediterranean, west coast marine, and humid subtropical) all have high levels of rainfall, but may not necessarily break one-year rainfall records.
