The soil that forms in a hot, wet climate is very different from the soil that develops in a cold, dry climate. Climate influences the characteristics of developing soil because the climate influences the weathering of the rock. The four soil types that develop in different climate regions are: tropical, desert, temperate, and arctic.

How does climate affect soil?
soil characteristics develop as a result of their oriqin and development soils beqins as a particular rock material and develops slowly over many years, each soil is a product of a combination of: parent material, climate. livinq orqanisms, topoqraphy and time.
What is the French word which means a sense of place and encompasses all the climate and geographic features in making wine?
'Le terroir' (masc.). It refers to any geographically limited area, where soils share the same geological characteristics, and the same climate.
How does climate affect development of soil?
When the climate is very dry, few plants if any can grow in the soil. Such soils can not be enriched by decaying plant matter and also can not be stabilized by the roots of plants. The result is that the soils are blown about by the wind and broken down even further into fine sand particles in the process -- forming the basis of a typical desert. When the climate is moderately wet, however, plants can grow and the soils become enriched with humus and are fertile. When the climate is too wet and there is not enough drainage to carry away the surplus rain water, soils can become acetic and marshy so that, again, only certain plants can survive there.
