Why is the rainforest near the equator?
It rain's more at the equator because there is more evaporation, because of the heat. Therefore there is more rain.
Why the climate changes in rainforest?
The other guy was way way wrong. The rainforest is hot because it is on the equator. It is hot all year round, at about 23-26 degrees. There is a specific reason why it is hot on the equator, but it is very difficult to explain without diagrams.
What is the difference between the Temperate region and the Frigid zone?
torrid zone is the heatest zone of earth as compared to temperate zone. the torrid zone lies between tropics of cancer & capricorn, while the temperate zone has been divided into 2, the north temperate zone which lies between tropic of cancer & arctic circle, the south temperate zone lies between tropicof capricorn & antarctic circle.
Why does India have glaciers that are over 240 years old if it is located at the equator?
India is not at the equator, though it is located at a latitude generally associated with warm climate. The glaciers of India are in the Himalayas, the tallest mountain range in the world. No matter the latitude, it is always cold at high elevation. Even at the equator, the air more than 5 kilometers above sea level is almost always below freezing. Temperatures in the Himalayas are certainly low enough to support the formation of glaciers.
Why are temperature's near the equator always the same?
cuz the people who liv close to the equator dey is hot
Does rainforests only have one season?
Yes because most rainforests are located on the equator and the sun always shines on the equator, it never goes away.
What are the 2 different types of rainforest?
tropical and temperate
Was Antarctica always so cold?

Which climate zone is Japan located?

Why is the rainforest near the equator?
It rain's more at the equator because there is more evaporation, because of the heat. Therefore there is more rain.
Why are rain forests found and where are they?
Rainforests are always found closer to the equator or the tropics of Capricorn or Cancer, these areas have hot moist air and very high rainfall fostering the lush growth of the forest.
What is equatorial climate?
Equatorial climate is hot but wet and is found within 5 degrees either side of the equator. This is due to the angle of the earth facing the sun. The equator is always in the sun so this causes tropical rainforests to grow along it. It rains here every afternoon.
Why do tropical rainforests grow where they grow?
Most of the rainforests in the world are along the equator. This is because it is so hot there, and all the water gets evaporated and condenses in that area, creating precipitation, and lots of it! This equals to the ground becoming very wet and the air hot. This type of climate is the perfect type for foliage which is why the rainforests are there, the rain is always constant, and the rainforest floor is forever marsh, wet, or flooded.
What causes the equatorial climate in a rainforest?
The equatorial climate in a rainforest is caused by the location near the equator, where the sun's rays strike the Earth most directly, resulting in consistently high temperatures and abundant rainfall throughout the year. This combination of factors creates a stable warm and humid environment that supports the growth of diverse flora and fauna in rainforests.
Are Tropical rainforests always green?
Yes
How hot do the rainforests get?
its always cold kumbskulls
Why are tropical rainforest near the equater?
The region around the equator is the tropics (both north and south), so any rainforest around the equator which is in the tropics is a tropical rainforest. A rainforest can exist (and does exist) outside the tropics. The Pacific Northwest, for example, has the Hoh rainforest. A "tropical rainforest" is typically hot year round with little temperature change from month to month. Tropical rainforests are near the equator because the climate there is warm, very wet and constant due to the position of the sun over the equator; it's always directly overhead. The plants that live there thrive in these conditions. There are only two seasons in the tropical rainforests: wet season and dry season. The rainforests are so wet because whenever it rains, the water collects on the big leaves of the trees and evaporates quickly, forms into clouds and rains down again.
