Which Köppen climate type (or types) is most closely associated with the midlatitude grassland biome?
Using the global map of biome distribution (Map T-30 in the back of the Lab Manual), the map of climate distribution (Map T-29), the maps of global temperature (Maps T-28a and T-28b), the map of global precipitation (on the inside front cover of the Lab Manual), as well as information about Köppen climate types from Exercise 23, answer the question.
What will be an ideal response?
BSk (midlatitude steppe) with some areas of BSh (subtropical steppe).
