1 The Tropical Rainforest
2 Objectives To be able to interpret and analyse data from a variety of different sources To recognise how different parts of the tropical rainforest ecosystem are linked together To understand the structure of a climate graph and its key elements
3 What is a climate graph? The Tropical Rainforest
4 Rainfall is read from the left hand scale and from the bars on the graph The Tropical Rainforest
5 In January there was 267mm of rainfall Rainfall is read from the left hand scale and from the bars on the graph
6 Temperature is read from the right hand scale and from the line on the graph
7 In January the average temperature was 26.9 C Temperature is read from the right hand scale and from the line on the graph
8 The x axis shows the months of the year, usually just by their initial The Tropical Rainforest
9 The temperature point falls in line with the centre of the rainfall bar
10 As the rainfall is discrete data, each bar should appear separate from the next The Tropical Rainforest
