extra tropics
This climate is characteristic of a humid subtropical climate. It typically features long, hot summers with high levels of humidity and short, mild winters._precipitation is relatively evenly distributed throughout the year.
A subtropical rainforest typically has high temperatures and high humidity throughout the year. It receives abundant rainfall, often more than 60 inches per year. The climate is characterized by mild winters and warm, rainy summers.
The trade winds blow between the subtropical high pressure zone and the equator. They blow from the northeast in the Northern Hemisphere and from the southeast in the Southern Hemisphere. These winds are reliable and consistent, making them important for sailing routes historically.
The soil type is known as Ultisols. Ultisols are highly weathered soils that form in humid tropical and subtropical regions with high temperatures and high rainfall. These soils are typically acidic, low in fertility, and have a clay-rich mineral composition.
True. Subtropical desert climates are commonly found in areas dominated by subtropical high-pressure cells, which create dry conditions and inhibit cloud formation and precipitation. Examples include the Sahara Desert and Arabian Desert.
Another name for the area of subtropical highs is the horse latitudes. These areas are characterized by descending air and relatively calm winds. They are located roughly around 30 degrees latitude north and south of the equator.
Savannas are another name for grasslands. They are characterized by grasses and few trees, commonly found in tropical or subtropical regions.

The winds that blow from the subtropical high pressure belts towards the subpolar low pressure belts are known as the westerlies. These winds move in a west-to-east direction in the middle latitudes of both hemispheres.
Desert is another name for a subtropic climate. The weather phenomenon known as the Hadley cell causes many deserts to form in these areas.

No, it's a high pressure region.From wikipedia-Horse Latitudes or Subtropical High are subtropical latitudes between 30 and 35 degrees both north and south. This region, under a ridge of high pressure called the subtropical high, is an area which receives little precipitation and has variable winds mixed with calm.
