Hey, how could one explain the mostly year-round rainfall within the temperate climate zone?
Hey, how could one explain, for example, the year-round rainfall within the temperate climate zone?
A good example would be this climate diagram:
Thank you.
Berlin is located within the west wind zone of the mashed latitudes. This also does not change fundamentally through the seasonal change. That's why there's a very good fall here. It is also an oceanic cobbled climate without extended dry periods.
Okay, thank you. However, is the rainfall even higher than in winter, as the higher temperature can also evaporate more water, which makes it more raining, or are the winds in winter also a bit cooler and drier, causing less humid air to rise and fall down as rain?
This varies and coincides with the large weather situation. If a high settles in the east, it can happen that for weeks hardly any rain fades. That was a problem in the last few years in D. Since this does not occur regularly (previously), the climate is nevertheless overall humid.
It is not the case that high temperatures cause higher rainfall. The air is warmer and can absorb more moisture, but also more moisture, so it does not rain.
The differences are too low in D. It's a very humid atmosphere. I also do not know what period of the above diagram is because I do not know the text. Possibly is shown here only 1 year, so comprehensive statements are not possible.
Okay, so you can't really explain the difference between February and January on the basis of the chart?
So to explain the difference generally between two months is not possible, is it?
The temperature difference between January and February is too low for a plausible relationship.
Okay, but according to my explanation, the precipitation would have to be higher in February than that in January, as the temperatures and therefore the air are warmer, so that more moisture can be absorbed, there should normally be more precipitation in February.
Why is it reversed here?
This is true, even though the differences are low in D.
Climate studies also show that in D in winter, the declines are increasing and there are more drought phases in the summer. There must also be other explanations than the warm air. The entire large weather situation changes fundamentally.
Could also write the following:
In Germany, the west wind is responsible for the annual rainfall, as it brings with it a damp humidity and warmth.
In summer, the temperatures in Berlin are higher and therefore the air is warmer. This means that the air can absorb more moisture, is more evaporated and thus more precipitates.
In winter, on the other hand, the temperatures in Berlin are lower, so that the air is colder and thus can absorb less moisture (from the west wind), which also produces less precipitation than in summer!
Is that true?
It is true that in summer the thunderstorms are more productive due to the worm air. However, this does not necessarily have something to do with climate. This can also look different because the differences are not particularly large.
Here is another diagram where the distribution is more of the same size.
The slightly drier phases in the spring and autumn could be enslaved with the sun above the equator. These results in the position of the west wind zone in the region.
Okay, what could I explain the different quantities in summer and winter?
