The main practical value of a climate classification is that it

  • A.predicts individual weather events ahead
  • B.replaces any need for observations
  • C.determines the soil type of a region
  • D.allows distant regions to be compared

Answer: D

Correct answer: allows distant regions to be compared

A classification is a common language: it lets a place in Chile be recognised as climatically equivalent to one in California or the Cape, so that agricultural, ecological and engineering experience can be transferred between them. It forecasts nothing, replaces no observations, and does not determine soil, though climate is one of the factors that forms soil.
