Tropical rainforests are located within the tropics because that is the area of earth closest to the sun. Warm air rises and condenses, creating rain. This is known as Hadley cell circulation. In addition, they are on the windward side of mountains. The Amazon is hemmed in by the Andes and the east coastal RF is hemmed in by the Highlands.
