In the tropical climate group, what do the f, m, and w letters mainly differentiate?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Rainfall seasonality and intensity of the dry season
In the tropical A group, temperatures remain high enough that the important subdivision is usually precipitation regime. Af has rainfall throughout the year, Am has a short or limited dry period with heavy monsoon rain, and Aw has a pronounced dry winter. Thus f, m, and w distinguish rainfall seasonality and dry-season intensity.
