World map showing the Tropic of Cancer Relationship of Earth's axial tilt (ε) to the tropical and polar circles. The Tropic of Cancer, also known as the Northern Tropic, is the Earth's northernmost circle of latitude where the Sun can be seen directly overhead.
World map with the intertropical zone highlighted in crimson Areas of the world with tropical climates. The tropics are the regions of Earth surrounding the Equator.They are defined in latitude by the Tropic of Cancer in the Northern Hemisphere at 23°26′09.9″ (or 23.43609°) N and the Tropic of Capricorn in the Southern Hemisphere at 23°26′09.9″ (or 23.43609°) S.
This is a list of countries by cancer frequency, as measured by the number of new cancer cases per 100,000 population among countries, based on the 2018 GLOBOCAN statistics and including all cancer types (some earlier statistics excluded non-melanoma skin cancer).
World map with the middle latitudes highlighted in red Extratropical cyclone formation areas. The middle latitudes (also called the mid-latitudes, sometimes midlatitudes, or moderate latitudes) are a spatial region on Earth located between the Tropic of Cancer (latitudes 23°26′09.9″) to the Arctic Circle (66°33′50.1″), and Tropic of Capricorn (-23°26′09.9″) to the Antarctic ...
The Torrid Zone, between the Tropic of Cancer at 23°26′09.9″ N and the Tropic of Capricorn at 23°26′09.9″ S, covers 39.78% of Earth's surface. The South Temperate Zone, between the Tropic of Capricorn at 23°26′09.9″ S and the Antarctic Circle at 66°33′50.1″ S, covers 25.99% of Earth's surface.
Areas of the world with subtropical climates. This list of locations with a subtropical climate specifically lists locations considered within the subtropics.The subtropics are geographic and climate zones located roughly between the Tropic of Cancer and Tropic of Capricorn and the 40th parallel in both hemispheres.
Subtropics. The subtropical zones or subtropics are geographical and climate zones to the north and south of the tropics. Geographically part of the temperate zones of both hemispheres, they cover the middle latitudes from 23°26′09.9″ (or 23.43609°) to approximately 35° north and south. The horse latitudes lie within this range.
The climate of Mexico is very diverse. [1] The Tropic of Cancer effectively divides the country into temperate and tropical zones. Land that is north of the twenty-fourth parallel experiences lower temperatures during the winter months. South of the twenty-fourth parallel, temperatures are fairly consistent all year round and vary solely as a ...
