Whats the difference between the humid subtropical climate and oceanic climate?
My friend, I have read about meteorology in French (my mother tongue) in Norwegian (the language spoken where I live) and in English (the language of aviators, since I am a pilot). Our weather is about the differences of temperature, pressure and moisture of our atmosphere in different regions. Anything else is trying to put in words simple laws of physic. What is a “humid” climate? It is probably the definition that the book you read uses. Let’s have a try. An oceanic climate would mean the vicinity of a large body of water.
