Mapping Canada’s Regions
written and designed by : Arsham Mokhtari
For the first part, we want to describe the types
of climate and vegetation in the region:
Group A:
Climate: Tropical rainy weather and no cold season.
Thermal Properties: The average temperature of all the
months is more than 18 ° C and its annual rainfall exceeds
the annual evaporation.
Vegetation: Deliberately plants that have high thermal
requirements and require high temperature, constant and
high rainfall.
These include: tropical humid climate, tropical dry and
humid climate, and tropical monsoon climate.
Group B:
Climate Zone: Dry weather
Thermal properties: Evaporation exceeds precipitation. The
thermal boundaries are determined by the formula.
Vegetation: Plants are consistent with prolonged drought
and high transpiration.
Climate boundaries of Group B cannot be determined
solely on the basis of a certain amount of rainfall. The
amount of transpiration should also be considered and
whether the precipitation occurs in the warmest season of
the year.
These include: arid or desert climate and semi-arid or
steppe climate.
Group C:
Climate Zone: Warm and humid climate in temperate
region
Thermal Characteristics: In these climates, the coldest
month is between 3 and 18 ° C
Seasonal variations are evident. The warmest month of the
year is more than 10 ° C.
Vegetation: Suitable for plants that require warm, humid
air.
These include: tropical humid climates, dry and temperate
climates (dry winters), and Mediterranean climates (dry
summers).
Group D:
Climate Zone: Cold and snowy forest climate
Thermal Properties: The average temperature of the
coldest month is below zero degrees Celsius (in the
Guppen classification below 3 degrees Celsius). The
warmest month is the average of 10 ° C.
Vegetation: The isothermal line of 10 ° C represents the
hottest month of potential forest growth. Vegetation must
withstand cold and snowy winters.
These include cold weather with wet winters and cold air
with dry winters.
Group E:
Climate Zone: Arctic climate
Thermal Properties: The average temperature in the
warmest month is below 10 ° C.
Vegetation: Most thunderstorms are able to withstand
persistent frostbite.
This group includes: Thunder air and freezing air.
Group F:
Climates of altitudes: This group covers complex climates in
climatic regions D, C, B, A. There is no exact formula for
determining the F-group climate boundary.
Soil types:
There are a variety of soils that each soil has unique
characteristics in terms of color, texture, structure and
content. The depth of the soil is also different. The type of
soil in an area determines the type of plants that can grow
there.
There are 12 types of soils:
1- Alfisols soil
2- Aridisols
3- Entisols soil
4- Histosols
5- Inceptisols soil
6- Mollisols
7- Oxisols
8- Spodosols
9- Ultisols
10- Gelisols
11- Andisols Soil

Winds
Each region has its own climate. In some areas,
the climate is warm, cold, and some temperate
In short, the climate difference depends on the
area (cold, hot, humid and temperate)
The similarity of weather depends on hot or cold
weather is cold and humid in some areas and
warm and humid in some areas.
