The United States primarily falls outside the tropical zone, which is defined by the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn. However, the southernmost parts of Florida and Hawaii experience tropical climates. These regions have warm temperatures year-round and receive significant rainfall, characteristic of the tropics. Overall, the majority of the U.S. is situated in temperate zones.
Countries found in the tropical zone include Brazil, Indonesia, Nigeria, India, and the Philippines, among others. This zone is characterized by warm temperatures year-round and includes regions near the equator. The tropical zone encompasses parts of Africa, Asia, Australia, and Latin America, hosting diverse ecosystems and climates.
Tropical and subtropical climate zones dominate Latin America. These regions are often characterized by warm temperatures, high humidity, and distinct wet and dry seasons. The Amazon Rainforest, the Caribbean islands, and the Amazon Basin are examples of areas with tropical climates in Latin America.
The climate in the tropical zone is characterized by hot and humid weather.
The two landmasses that lie in the tropical and south temperate zones are Australia and South America. Australia primarily extends into the tropical zone in its northern region, while its southern parts reach into the temperate zone. South America, particularly its northern regions, is located in the tropics, while the southern regions, including parts of Chile and Argentina, fall within the temperate zone. Both landmasses exhibit diverse climates and ecosystems due to their geographical locations.
In the tropical climate zone.
The two landmasses are South America and Africa. South America lies mostly within the tropical zone, while Africa extends from the tropical zone into the southern temperate zone.
Africa
The tropical climate zone dominates Central America and the northern part of South America. The southern part of South America is in the temperate zone.
Asia is the continent with most of its landmass in the tropical zone

This zone is characterized by warm temperatures year-round and includes regions near the equator. The tropical zone encompasses parts of Africa, Asia, Australia, and Latin America, hosting diverse ecosystems and climates.
In Central America, the climate zone varies. This is because there are at least a dozen different climatic zones. However, for the most part, the climate in Central America is tropical.
Tropical and subtropical climate zones dominate Latin America. These regions are often characterized by warm temperatures, high humidity, and distinct wet and dry seasons. The Amazon Rainforest, the Caribbean islands, and the Amazon Basin are examples of areas with tropical climates in Latin America.
Algeria, Australia, Bahamas, and Bangladesh are all countries that are in the tropical zone. Also, Chile and Egypt are in the tropical zone.
North America contains every type of climate zone there is. There is the tropical rainforest climate of Central America on up the arctic tundra of the North Pole.
Saudi Arabia is in the tropics.
The only continents not located entirely within the tropical zone are Antarctica and Europe. Antarctica is mostly within the Antarctic Circle, while Europe spans from the Arctic Circle to the subtropical regions.
Jamaica is located in the tropical zone
