Tropical Rain Forest Climate

Friday, May 1st, 2009

 

A tropical rain forest climate is also known as a “wet tropical climate””. This implies that the area tends to receive large amounts of rainfall. Many regions of tropical rainforest lack a dry season or at most only two months of the year are dry. Average annual precipitation is 70 to over 100 inches ( 180 – 250 cm). Temperatures remain consistently high and there is no winter season. The mean annual temperature is 77 to 81 degrees F. ( 25 to 27 degrees) . Daytime high temperatures range from 95 degrees F ( 30 degrees celsius) to the low 90’s ( 32 to 34 degrees Celsius)

The highest temperature measured at Santarem , Brazil along the Amazon River in the Amazon Basin of South America was 85 degrees farenheit; this is just slightly below the usual tropical forest nightime low of 68 – 75 degrees farenheight ( 20 to 24 degrees celsius). Average humidity can be estimated at approximately 85 % and above. Tropical rainforest climates are located primarily within a range of 10 degrees lattitudes poleward in both directions of the equator.

Regions of the world that are influenced by the presence of a tropical rainforest climate include: most of the eastern half of Central America , part of the Northwestern coastline of South America from 15 degrees S latitude to 10 degrees North ( this includes the Amazon Basin ) , the Congo Basin of Africa, a small section on the eastern coast of Africa, eastern Madagascar , all of Malaya , almost all of the Indonesian islands including Sumatra; New guinea, the eastern Philippines, and parts of Southwest Asia.

Up and Down Movements

Wednesday, December 31st, 2008

Unique to Australia and New Guinea is a family known as “scaly-footed lizards” . the Pygopodidae .  They are characterized as being “limbless”  , that is except for a pair of flaps near the “vent”.  They lack eyelids and the ear may be said to be either exposed or hidden.

Basilliscus basilliscus , a yard long iguanid , from Columbia and Central America  is capable of running over water. Young specimens were once sold simply as pets .  The crests are commonly sexually dimorphic , in these genus  , giving the males the larger size crests.

In moving underground a lizard may  employ one of several methods, the most common being a corkscrew like method use of the head and neck, literally pushing its way through the soil. In some the head moves up and down , while the body pushes the creature forward.
