The Mediterranean climate is a special type of subtropical climate generally found in the subtropical latitudes. The Mediterranean climate is characterized by a summer drought, caused by the subtropical ridge, that's to say the subtropical high pressure systems belt which brings clear skies, sunny and dry weather to the subtropical regions with a Mediterranean climate. More precisely, a location with a Mediterranean climate will have warm to hot, dry summers and mild to warm, wet winters. The Mediterranean climate is also called the Dry summer-subtropical climate. Many locations with a such climate have an abudant sunshine duration (usually above 2 500 hours) year-round but especially in summer where cloudy days are almost non-existant but even in winter during the wet season.
