Climograph


A climograph is again a map used in meteorology.  A climograph is defined by a graph that depicts the annual cycle of temperature and rainfall for geographical locations. On the graph, one vertical access shows temperature, the second vertical access shows rainfall, and the horizontal access shows time.  This makes a climograph look like a bar graph with a line going trough or on top of it.  As you can see from the above climograph of beautiful Honolulu, Hawaii the top x axis (the line) shows temperature.  The bottom x axis (the bars) show the months. An the y axis shows the precipitation.
