Term · Meteorology and atmospheric science · MLC-T-MET-004368
An area of the Earth's surface characterized by relatively uniform climatic conditions, distinguished from adjacent regions by differences in temperature, precipitation, and seasonal patterns. These regions are often delineated using classification systems based on vegetation, air mass dominance, or other meteorological parameters. The Köppen climate classification system is a widely recognized method for defining such regions.
