Answer to Question 1

Answer: The tropical group consists of three climates, each of which is warm year-round, with only minorand in some cases, minimalvariation in temperature throughout the year. The three climates are distinguished by their different degrees of precipitation seasonality. The tropical wet climate has significant rainfall every month of the year, the tropical wet and dry climate has a pronounced dry season, and the monsoonal climate undergoes relative dryness for one to three months but receives sufficient moisture that vegetation need not be adapted to seasonal drought. All three tropical climates are dominated by the seasonal movement of the Hadley cells.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: A climograph depicts mean monthly temperature and precipitation data for a location. The data are plotted using a line and bar graph simultaneously. The climograph allows for quick interpretation of some important climatic variables for a particular location.
