Solution
- Manaus is located in the north of Brazil. Brazil’s northern portion experiences perpendicular sun rays throughout the year due to the equator passing across the country. As a result, the temperature here is quite high.
- Additionally, due to its equatorial region, this region experiences convectional rains. So the temperature here is humid.
- This region’s climate is hot and humid all year.
Therefore, there is not much difference in the range of climatic temperature in Manaus.
