The climate of a location corresponds to the set of weather variations in the regions and directly influences the type of vegetation. To establish the climate it is necessary to analyze the atmospheric phenomena of a region for about 30 years.
The differences in relief, altitude, dynamics of air masses and sea currents, present in the large area of the Brazilian territory (in the north-south extension, Brazil measures4,395 km and has a total area of 8,514,876 km²) is the reason for the great climatic diversity that the country presents.

Climate Zones of Brazil
Equatorial
Features: high temperatures, annual average of 26°C, high air humidity, rain throughout the year and temperature range below 3°C. It suffers the action of the Equatorial Continental and Equatorial Atlantic air masses.
Regions: the Equatorial Climate Zone comprises regions close to the equator such as the State of Amazonas, Rondônia, Acre, Roraima, Amapá, Pará, western Maranhão State and northern Mato Grosso.
Tropical Equatorial Zone
Features: rainy summers, dry winters with little rain, high temperatures with low variation. The average annual temperature is 25°C.
Regions: predominant in Tocantins, Piauí, Ceará, Maranhão, Rio Grande do Norte, Pernambuco, eastern Roraima and western Paraíba.

seasoned
Features: well-defined seasons, hot summers and cold winters. Average annual temperature of 19º C. It occurs in regions close to the tropics and polar circles. In mountainous regions, frost or snow may occur during the winter. It has the lowest temperatures in the country, below 0 °C.
Regions: Occurs in latitudes below the Tropic of Capricorn, in the south of the State of São Paulo, Center and south of Paraná, Santa Catarina and Rio Grande do Sul.
Tropical Central Brazil
Features: well-defined seasons, one dry and one rainy. Drought or little rain in winter and rainy summers. O The behavior of the atmosphere in this region is explained by the fact that, during the hottest season, the influence of the Continental Equatorial mass, coming from the north of the country, predominates.
During the cold season, this air mass retreats and the Atlantic Tropical mass predominates, coming from the coast and reaching the interior of the country with little humidity. In winter it is moderately cold and hot in summer. Thermal averages vary between 20°C and 28°C. O rainfall in the region is around 1500 mm per year.
Regions: Occurs in Mato Grosso do Sul, Goiás, Espírito Santo, Rio de Janeiro, Minas Gerais, northern and central regions of São Paulo, south of Tocantins, Bahia, with the exception of the coastal strip of the State, north of Paraná and south of Piauí.
tropical northeast east
Features: It comprises a small strip of northeastern Brazil that is bathed by the Atlantic Ocean. It has high temperatures throughout the year, a rainy winter and little rain in the summer. The average annual temperature is 25ºC.
Regions: It covers territories in Rio Grande do Norte, Paraíba, Alagoas, Sergipe, Pernambuco and Bahia.
