CLIMOGRAPH UNIT: s^ioThe climate can be defined as the average amountof rainfall, and the average temperature in a region.The climate of a region affects the type of soil thatis formed there, and the type of plants and animalsthat will ultimately end up inhabiting that region.

When reading a climograph it is important to makesure you are reading the correct side of the graph.For instance, if you want to determine or chart thecorrect amount of rainfall in a month, you need to readthe right side of the graph. Likewise, if you want todetermine or chart the average temperature in a givenmonth, you needs to look at the left side of the chart.
