Question

Name the categories in which climate are divided and based on the habitat. You will be marked BRAINLIEST for this

Answer 1

When we discuss the climate of India, we also focus on the seasons in India which are,

Winter

Winter season is the season of cold. It extends from December to February. During the winter season, you wear warm clothes because the sunrays do not fall directly in the region hence the temperature drops down. As a result, there is cold, especially in northern India.

Summer

Summer season is the season of heat. The summer season extends from March to May. During the summer season, the surface of the Earth become dehydrated because the sun rays directly fall in the region hence increasing the heat. Temperature becomes very high. Hot and dry winds called loo, blow during the day.

Monsoon

Monsoon is the season of rains. It extends from June to September. It is marked by the onset and advance of monsoon. The winds blow from Arabian Sea and Bay of Bengal towards the land and carry moisture with them. When these winds strike the mountain barriers, rainfall occurs.

Autumn

Autumn is the season of retreating monsoon. It extends from October to November. Winds move back from the mainland to the Bay of Bengal. The southern parts of India, particularly Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh receive rainfall in this season.

The climate of India is rainfall dominant as there are almost 4-5 months of rainy season. It is described as Monsoon Type. India is blessed with its location in the tropical region, therefore most of the rain is brought by the monsoon winds. The concept of ‘climate’ would be clear if we understood the factors affecting the climate of India:

Location: If the location of the region is near the 0° equator then the climate would be really hot and humid. However, if the location is towards to the poles, then the climate would be very cold.
‎Altitude: Altitude is measured from the sea level. The mountainous areas are much cooler compared to the plains.
‎Distance from sea: Sea impacts the climate enormously. The regions near the sea are generally hot and humid because of the sea breeze and the land breeze.
