Explanatory notes
editThis map- File-India_and_South_Asia_Köppen_climate_map_with_legend.jpg is cropped from source map File:Köppen World Map (retouched version).png.[1] Some explanations are given below.
Lack of recording stations: Alps, Temperate zone in South India
editExtent of Temperate climate markings ( “C” zone) in South India
editIn map File:Köppen World Map (retouched version).png-The Temperate climate markings ( “C” zone) are larger in Tropical South India, around Kodaikanal which is on the eastern side of Western Ghats mountains in Tamil Nadu state, at a higher elevation (~2300m). And also the temperate climate markings extend further South than expected. This is due to recordings from temperature station at Kodaikanal & lack of recording stations from nearby lowland areas, so markings could not be corrected due to lack of data.[1]
Extent of Alps in Europe marked as E zone; (Himalayas-high mountains- not marked as “E” zone)
editIn map File:Köppen World Map (retouched version).png-Alps high mountains are marked as “E” zone in this map. But “E” zone markings in the map for the Alps- high mountains do not cover the extent expected, because of lack of recording stations.[1] In this map, Himalayas -high mountains- are not marked as “E” zone.
Another map from a different source, shows no "C" zone in South India, Himalayas high mountains marked as "E" zone
editAnother map with reliable source is in references list given below. This map is based on data sets from the Climatic Research Unit (CRU) of the University of East Anglia and the Global Precipitation Climatology Centre (GPCC) at the German Weather Service.This is a digital Köppen–Geiger world map[2] on climate classification for the second half of the 20th century.
World Map of the Köppen-Geiger climate classification updated
This map[2] shows no temperate "C" zone in tropical South India & Himalayas high mountains are marked as polar "E" zone.
