Each climatic zone of the earth is different fromother unique characteristics. Even intermediate variants such as subarctic or subtropical have their own peculiarities. They can determine flora or farming conditions. What exactly stands out subtropical belt? Let's try to figure it out.
Субтропический климатический пояс лежит в двух hemispheres. It is located between the equator and the tropics. Due to the extremely favorable conditions for human survival, which creates a subtropical belt, the first ancient civilizations appeared on such a territory. And Mesopotamia, Palestine, and Greece are located in this lane. In addition, now these are the best areas for tourism and agriculture: olives, grapes, citrus fruits and many other species grow here.
The subtropical belt is characterized by lowrainfall in the summer - such conditions create high pressure areas and cyclones with frequent rains in winter. The temperature in the warmest month averages twenty-five degrees, and in the coldest one - five. Summer differs in dry and hot weather with a minimum of clouds, and winter is rather windy and rainy. Such conditions provide a small amount of snow, which does not linger for a long time. If the territory of the subtropical zone covers the high mountains, the so-called climate of cold deserts arises. It is distinguished by an extremely cold winter with temperatures as low as minus fifty and cool summers, unstable snows and strong winds. In the eastern areas of the belt dominated by the monsoon version. It is characterized by a warmer and cloudy summer. Winter is getting drier. The subtropical belt, the sediments in which are usually scarce, is characterized here by a quantity reaching almost a thousand millimeters. Because of this, lush vegetation grows in this area and agriculture is well developed.
Where does this weather occur?The subtropical climate zone covers a large area of Turkmenistan, the state of Rajasthan in India, Afghanistan in the plains, the pampas of South America, the Iranian Highlands, Bukhara, the Xinjiang depression, the Great Basin of North America, and South Australia.
Субтропический пояс, осадки которого имеют seasonal nature, well suited for some species of flora. All vegetation can be divided into several types - hemigiley, monsoon, stiff-leaved or Mediterranean forests. Each of them are accompanied by certain types of plants. PCBs develop in a special way so as not to depend on large quantities of water. The canopy of such a forest is located in one tier, with wide crowns. The hard-leaved areas are accompanied by dense undergrowth of evergreen shrubs. The trunks of the trees branch out from the ground, they are covered with a cork or a crust. The subtropical belt includes areas of monsoon forests. The main trees inhabiting such territories are beeches, magnolias, firs, bamboos, all kinds of palm trees. Such a forest consists of many tiers with dense undergrowth and vines. And finally, hemigiley. These are evergreen broadleaf forests, in which vines and epiphytes are not very common. Conifers, ferns, oaks, magnolias, camphor laurels are widespread.
The fauna of the subtropics is well adapted toclimatic conditions of its habitat zone with hot summer, cool winter and possible droughts. Therefore, the activity of animals is often seasonal, tied to the moments of the most favorable combination of temperature and humidity. In this lane you can meet ungulates, for example, mouflon, fallow deer. Small predators of civet and wild cats inhabit the subtropics. In the Pyrenees in this belt there are bears. In the hard-leaved areas you can find monkeys, jackals, wolves, porcupines, chameleons. Common seed-eating animals are rodents, squirrels, dormice. Many different reptiles, and birds are represented by vultures, finches, falcons, linnets, goldfinches, great tits, blackbirds. In the desert areas such ungulates as gazelles or wild donkeys are found; predators such as tigers, leopards, and cheetahs are common. It is inhabited by many jackals and hyenas. On such a territory you can meet a lot of birds, it is both sparrows, and reels, and blue magpies, and marble teals, and mockingbirds, and heaters. Often come across black vultures and griffon vultures. In the Mediterranean areas, chameleons, geckos, lizards, and many snakes, including snakes and snakes, are common. The world of insects inhabiting subtropics is also rich - butterflies, beetles, and termites are found here in an impressive variety.
