Discussion
Consider the following statements about the Koppen system.
1. The first letter denotes the broad climate group.
2. Subsequent letters describe precipitation seasonality and temperature.
3. The system is derived from the general circulation.
Answer: B
Correct answer: 1 and 2 only
Statements 1 and 2 describe the coding correctly - the first letter gives the broad group, the second the precipitation pattern and the third the temperature detail. Statement 3 is wrong, and it is the standing contrast in this topic: Koppen is empirical, built on observed thresholds, while a genetic classification derives its types from the general circulation that causes them.
