The most popular classification scheme is probably the Köppen climate classification scheme.
Climate classification systems include:
- Aridity index

- Holdridge Life Zone Classification System
Famous quotes containing the word climate:
“Culture is the name for what people are interested in, their thoughts, their models, the books they read and the speeches they hear, their table-talk, gossip, controversies, historical sense and scientific training, the values they appreciate, the quality of life they admire. All communities have a culture. It is the climate of their civilization.”
—Walter Lippmann (1889–1974)
