Temperate rainy climate - Ontai tau ki ko

Among temperate climates, this is a relatively humid climate without a dry season. It is also called a humid temperate climate. In the Köppen climate classification, the Cf climate is further divided into a humid subtropical climate (Cfa) with an average monthly temperature of 22°C or higher in the warmest month, and a west coast marine climate (Cfb) with an average monthly temperature of less than 22°C. The Cfa climate is found in most of Japan, the eastern United States, eastern Australia, and the mouth of the Rio de la Plata River in South America, and has a large annual temperature range. The Cfb climate is found in Western Europe, the Pacific coast of Canada, New Zealand, and parts of Chile. It has a mild climate with moderate rainfall all year round, and is productive and has a large population. It is the cultural and economic center of the world, along with the subarctic region that follows this region.

温帯気候のうち、乾期をもたず比較的湿潤な気候。温帯湿潤気候ともいう。ケッペンの気候区分でのCf気候で、これはさらに、最暖月の月平均気温が22℃以上の温暖湿潤気候(Cfa)と、22℃未満の西岸海洋性気候(Cfb)に区分される。Cfa気候は日本の大部分、アメリカ東部、オーストラリア東部、南アメリカのラ・プラタ河口付近などにみられ、気温の年較差がかなり大きい。Cfb気候は西ヨーロッパ、カナダ太平洋岸、ニュージーランド、チリの一部などにみられる。一年中どの月も適度な雨に恵まれる温和な気候で、生産活動が活発で人口も多く、この地方に続く亜寒帯地方とともに、地球上における文化や経済の中心となっている。
