In Köppen climate system "BS" climate is called :
Answer: B
The BS climate is the steppe (semi-arid) climate.
In the Köppen scheme, B is the dry group, where evaporation exceeds precipitation. The second letter separates the two dry types: W (from the German Wüste, desert) for the arid climates and S for steppe, the semi-arid climates on the fringes of the deserts. A third letter, h or k, marks hot or cold.
So BW, not BS, is the desert climate. The tropical wet-and-dry (savanna) climate is Aw, in the A group, and the monsoon climate is Am, also tropical.
