Write about the climate variations in Brazil.
Advertisements
Solution
Brazil has an equatorial climate in a small area, but the rest of the country has a tropical climate. The climate that exists as we move away from the equator is similar to the climate found near the Tropic of Capricorn. The temperature does not vary much, which is one of the reasons why Brazil has no tropical cyclones. The South-East Trade Winds and North-East Trade Winds provide rainfall in the country.
