The tropical dry climate zone features distinct wet and dry seasons, with a clear contrast between periods of heavy rainfall and drought.

The tropical dry climate zone is found in regions where there is a noticeable seasonal variation in rainfall. During the wet season, these areas receive significant rainfall, often leading to lush vegetation. However, in the dry season, rainfall is scarce, and the landscape may become parched, with vegetation going dormant or drying up. This climate zone is typically found in parts of Africa, India, and Central America. The variation in rainfall creates diverse ecosystems, from savannas to semi-arid landscapes.
