The Köppen climate classification divides climates into five main climate groups, with each group being divided based on patterns of seasonal precipitation and temperature. The five main groups are A (tropical), B (arid), C (temperate), D (continental), and E (polar).
An interactive visual window into our planet's changing climate, based on the most recent measurements and climate model predictions (read the research)
Koppen climate classification, widely used vegetation-based empirical climate-classification system developed by German botanist-climatologist Wladimir Koppen. He devised formulas that would define climatic boundaries corresponding to mapped vegetation zones (biomes).
On this web site we provide global data, world maps and computer animations of our updated Köppen-Geiger climate classification published by Kottek et al. (2006), Rubel and Kottek (2010) and Rubel et al. (2017).
This map displays the 22 Köppen climate regions that cover the United States and Puerto Rico. Click on the map to get more information about each unique region. The button in the lower right will display a map legend with the classifications.
An Interactive Köppen–Geiger Climate Map of the entire world.
Koppen Classification Map. The Köppen-Geiger system uses colors and shades to classify the world into five climate zones based on criteria like temperature, which allows for different vegetation growth. Map by H.E. Beck, N.E. Zimmermann, T.R. McVicar, N. Vergopolan, A. Berg, and E.F. Wood.
We present new global maps of the Köppen-Geiger climate classification at an unprecedented 1-km resolution for the present-day (1980–2016) and for projected future conditions (2071–2100)...
These maps show the Köppen climate classification for the long-term average climate (1901–2010). The classification is based on a global observation-based dataset by Kenji Matsuura and Cort J. Willmott, which combines data from several sources including GHCN2 interpolated onto a 0.5° longitude × 0.5° latitude grid.
This overlay applies the 100+ year old Köppen Climate Classification System. The intent of this map is to be a visual glossary of climate classifications. With it you will be able to see the actual geography that affects climate and how the geography is affected by the climate.
