In humid climates, the soil tends to be rich in organic matter due to the increased vegetation growth and decomposition. The soil may also be more acidic and have good water retention properties. Factors such as rainfall, temperature, and vegetation influence soil formation in humid regions.
A soil characteristic of the humid eastern US is Alfisols. Alfisols are typically fertile soils with a clay-rich subsoil that forms in temperate and humid climates. They are common in areas with deciduous forests and agriculture in the eastern United States.
The four temperate climates are........Mediterranean, Humid Subtropical, Marine West Coast, and Humid Continental
Climate is the factor that accounts for most of the differences between pedocal, pedalfer, and laterite soils. Pedocal soils are found in arid or semi-arid climates, pedalfer soils are typical in humid climates with high rainfall, and laterite soils develop in humid tropical climates with intense weathering. These climate conditions influence the processes of soil formation and the dominant minerals present in each soil type.
Latosols (predominantly yellow latosols)
Tropical climates typically have thick and fertile soil due to the warm and humid conditions that support rapid decomposition of organic matter. Regions with abundant rainfall and high temperatures, such as the Amazon rainforest, often have some of the most fertile soil in the world. These conditions promote the growth of lush vegetation, which in turn enriches the soil with nutrients.
it is a climate that is hot and cold
An acrisol is a clay-rich soil associated with humid tropical climates.
Landscapes in arid climates typically have sparse vegetation, rugged terrain, and limited water sources. In contrast, landscapes in humid climates tend to be lush with dense vegetation, rolling hills, and abundant water sources like rivers and lakes. The soil in arid climates is often dry and nutrient-poor, whereas in humid climates it is typically fertile due to regular rainfall.
Rainy, humid climates work well with porous hammocks that don't retain water.
Humid Continental and Subarctic Climates.

Because of the moderating influence of oceans, temperate marine climates are humid an have mild winters.
African elephants can be found in the driest of deserts, African savannas and in humid dense jungles.
