The climate zone with hot temperatures year‑round is the tropical zone (Köppen "A" climates). Key points:
- Location: roughly between the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn (about 23.5° N to 23.5° S).
- Temperature criterion: mean monthly temperature stays above about 18°C (64°F) all year.
- Major types: tropical rainforest (Af), tropical monsoon (Am), tropical savanna (Aw) — varying by rainfall pattern.
- Examples: Amazon Basin, Congo Basin, much of Indonesia and the Philippines, parts of Central America and the Caribbean.
Note: Hot deserts within subtropical belts (Köppen BWh), like the Sahara or Arabian Desert, are also hot year‑round but are very dry rather than humid.
