The type of weather that there is in a certain place is determined by different factors among which are the altitude, latitude, orientation of the relief, distance to the sea and marine currents and gives guidelines to the so-called “Meteorological time” which in turn is supported by other elements such as the temperature, pressure, wind, humidity and precipitation to describe the atmospheric conditions in a territory in a short term.
To catalog the climate, the system developed by Wladimir Köppen is generally used, although there is also the Thornthwaite system, the latter which also takes into account biological diversity and the effects of climate change on it. Others, such as Bergeron and Spacial Synoptic, focus on the origin of the air masses that define the climate of a region.
Due to climate change, currently the planet is in a process of redistribution in which any modification, however minimal, in the average annual temperature causes changes in the habitats and their conditions.

United States: almost all climates in one country
Being a large country, the United States has an enormous variety of climates, practically all of them.
On the eastern side of the United States Two main climates predominate: the humid subtropical and the humid continental.
In the American Northeast the most important weather is humid continental which is characterized by constant rains throughout the year that become storms during the summer and snow throughout the winter.
In the southeastern United States the prevailing weather condition is subtropical wetland it has warm summers, cool winters and abundant rainfall.
American west sidethere are at least three major predominant climates: semi-arid, arid and Mediterranean.
The semi-arid climate, in its cold subtypeencompasses the most central western and north–south part of the United Statesis characterized by low rainfall and low temperatures.
In the southwestern United States is where it is present arid climate, both in its cold and warm subtypes. In the cold arid, the winters are icy and the summers are mild, while in the hot arid the summer registers extremely high temperatures and in the winter the weather is mild. In both cases rainfall is scarce.
The Mediterranean climate registers in the most coastal area of the American West, from north to south and is characterized by its mild and rainy winters, plus its dry and hot summers.
