7. Solve the problems related to climatic zones.

a) The numbered statements below describe the characteristics of various climates and their area of occurrence. Select the climate from the list below, which is relevant for the given statement. Put its name on the dotted line below the statement. You can not find a match for all climates.

1. Its area is dominated by the descending limb of the trade wind system.

..................................................................................................

2. The annual range of temperature is extremely high, to which the natural vegetation composed of coniferous forest adapted the most. Winter is long and harsh, the transitional seasons are short, summer is short, warm and wet.

..................................................................................................

3. The winter is mild and wet, summer is hot and dry. Among others, the Northern coast of Africa has this type of climate.

..................................................................................................

4. In this climatic belt (öv) this climate is the most balanced. Precipitation is evenly distributed through the year. Here is the lowest annual range of temperature within the belt. The natural vegetation is deciduous forest.

..................................................................................................

5. Due to the ample precipitation, the nutrients of the soil are leached out in a short time. Owing to the permanently high temperatures, decomposers quickly transform organic matter. In these areas the non-water soluble, thus accumulating iron compounds make the colour of the soil red.

..................................................................................................

6. The annual amount of precipitation is not much greater than in deserts, but evaporation is low and infiltration of water into the deeper soil is negligible because of the permafrost layer. As a result huge marshlands develop in the summers.
