Answers
Answer:
The Amazon Rainforest is characterized by rain, heat and more rain and heat, providing the perfect environment for plants and wildlife! The Amazon is always humid with generous amounts of rain occurring year-round. Both the rainy and “rainier” seasons are great times for an Amazon tour.
Answer:
While the climate is humid tropical (Af) with warm temperatures and rain falling year round, the forest region is far from uniform in precipitation amounts and season of maximum rainfall. Annual precipitation totals vary from 59-118 inches, increasing from east to west. The ITCZ draws moisture far inland from the Atlantic Ocean; its latitudinal shifts influence the timing of the precipitation maximum, with the rainiest months occurring when the ITCZ is overhead and the driest when it most distant. The highest amounts occur in the west, where the Andes cause orographic uplift.
