Tropical maritime and or little seasonal temperature variation. There is though, seasonal variation in rainfall.
Why is there so little precipitation at high latitudes?
as you move away from the tropics it means you are moving closer to the equator and since at the equator is warm there will be little precipitation
Does earth's surface absorb thermal energy at the same rate?
No! Different surfaces absorb and reflect differing amounts of radiation from the sun. The degree of reflectance is known as "albedo". Some materials reflect much more energy than others. For example snow fields reflect a very large proportion of solar radiation (they have a high albedo) whereas materials like tarmac (which is black and so reflects very little radiation, and conversely absorbs the majority of it) has a low albedo. This is why tarmac (and other dark surfaces) can become very hot on a sunny day.

How changing albedo of ice impacting the Antarctic and Greenland ice caps?
Albedo is a positive feedback. If there is less ice, there earth will not be able to reflect as much radiation and it will warm a little bit more. This will cause continued enhancement of ice melt.
Do seasonal temperatures exist on Jupiter?
The axial tilt of Jupiter is relatively small: only 3.13°. As a result this planet does not experience significant seasonal changes, and very little in the way of seasonal temperature changes

Why don't fronts occur in the tropics?
Fronts only occur at the boundary of air masses. The Tropics, however are pretty uniform in their high heat and humidity, so there is little in the way of air mass differences.
