What is the rain forests
climate? By Samuel S. Shelton An average year
in a tropical rain forest, the climate is very
humid because of all the rainfall, which amounts
to about 250 cm per year. The rain forest has
lots of rain because it is very hot and wet. This
climate is found near the equator. That means
that there is more direct sunlight hitting the
land and sea there than anywhere else. The sun
warms the land and sea and the water evaporates
into the air. The warm air can hold a lot of
water vapor. As the air rises, it cools. That
means it can hold less water vapor. Then as warm
meets cold, condensation takes place and the
vapor forms droplets, and clouds form. The clouds
then produce rain. It rains more than ninety days
a year and the strong sun usually shines between
the storms.

The water cycle repeats often along the equator.
The main plants in this biome are trees. A lot of
the rain that falls on the rain forest never
reaches the ground. It stays on the trees because
the leaves act as a shield, and some rain never
gets past the trees to the smaller plants and
grounds below. Trees in this climate reach a
height of more than 164 feet. They form a canopy.
The forest floor is called under story. The
canopy also keeps sunlight from reaching the
plants in the under story. Between the canopy and
under story is a lower canopy made up of smaller
trees. These plants do receive some filtered
sunlight.
