Alpine climate is the average weather for the alpine tundra. The climate becomes colder when reaching higher elevations —this characteristic is described by the lapse rate of air: air tends to get colder as it rises, since it expands.
Polar and alpine climates has every month of the year with an average temperature below 10 °C (50 °F). [9] [11] ET = Tundra climate; average temperature of warmest month between 0 °C (32 °F) and 10 °C (50 °F). [9] [11] EF = Ice cap climate; eternal winter, with all 12 months of the year with average temperatures below 0 °C (32 °F). [9] [11]
[5] [6] Temperatures in the region average 9 °C (48 °F) in the summer months, and −21.5 °C (−6.7 °F) in the winter. Average precipitation ranges from 300 mm/year in the low elevations in the north to 750 mm/year in the higher elevations of the Selwyn Mountains of the southeast.
All average annual temperatures are compiled from weather data collected from 1981 to 2010 and ... is Ohio's warmest city. It has an annual average high of 69 degrees and holds the record high of ...
The tundra climate is a polar climate sub-type located in high latitudes and high mountains. It is classified as ET according to the Köppen climate classification. It is a climate which at least one month has an average temperature high enough to melt snow (0 °C [32 °F]), but no month with an average temperature in excess of 10 °C (50 °F). [1]
a) the alpine climate, which occurs when the mean biotemperature of a location is between 1.5 and 3 °C (34.7 and 37.4 °F). The alpine climate in Holdridge system is roughly equivalent to the warmest tundra climates (ET) in the Köppen system.
The month saw an average temperature of 39.5 degrees, breaking the previous record set in December 2015, which saw an average temp of 37.7 degrees, Patterson said.
Average summer temperatures range from 37 °F (3 °C) to 60 °F (16 °C). The tundra is very much like a desert in terms of precipitation. Yearly average precipitation varies by region, but generally, there is only about 6–10 inches (150–250 mm) of precipitation per year, and in some regions, it can have up to 20 inches (510 mm).
