In general, the climatic zone is determined by the latitude. The rule is that the farthest you go from the equator (the largest the latitude) the colder it gets. The rainfall near the equator is largest. In the subtropical zones the rainfall is smaller. In the intermediate zones the rainfall is large again. Please see the links for more details.

It's approximately but not strictly true that higher temperatures expreience

climates with lower average temperatures.
