The Tropical Savannah climate typically has distinct wet and dry seasons, with the dry season occurring during the cooler part of the year (winter).
‘Am’ indicates a Tropical Monsoon climate. ‘Cwg’ represents a subtropical highland climate or monsoon-influenced humid subtropical climate (often found in parts of India). ‘Dfc’ indicates a subarctic climate with cold winters and no dry season, characteristic of high latitudes.
