Climate regimes of Australia and the world
Figure 35. The range of climate regimes of the world presented in terms of mean annual temperature and precipitation. The inner shaded area covers essentially all the climate regimes of Australia. The warm rainfall peak corresponds to parts of the Queensland northern coast while the cooler peak relates to the heavy rainfall areas on the Tasmanian west coast. For Melbourne, Brisbane and Darwin the chart also shows the envelope of the annual means for all of the individual years in the climate record.
