How to read the map. Each colour is a Köppen-Geiger climate class. The first letter is the major group (A tropical, B arid, C temperate, D cold, E polar); the other letters say how dry it is and how warm or cold. Tap anywhere to see the class under that spot in 1901 to 1930, 1991 to 2020 and, under three emissions scenarios, 2071 to 2099. The codes and names are always given in words, because colour alone is hard to tell apart for some people.

Brazilian Island is a very small or disputed unit (under 20 classified 1 km map cells), so this page is not listed in search engines and its figures are only a rough guide.

Climate zones in Brazilian Island, 1991 to 2020

Brazilian Island is too small for an area breakdown, so it takes the climate zone of the nearest 1 km cell: Cfa Humid subtropical. See the zone page for what that means.
