In Aw climate, which season is comparatively dry?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Winter season
In Aw, the capital A identifies a tropical climate and the lowercase w indicates a dry winter. Rainfall is therefore concentrated mainly in the summer or warmer season, while winter is comparatively dry. This differs from As, where summer is dry, and from Af, where no distinct dry season occurs. The term ‘rainy season’ cannot itself be the dry season, so it is not a suitable answer.
