An Entity of Type : owl:Class, within Data Space : terminologies.gfbio.org associated with source document(s)

In W. KÃ¶ppen's 1936 climatic classification it is one of the polar climates, defined as having a mean temperature for the warmest month of less than 10Â°C (50Â°F) (in contrast to snow forest and temperate rainy climates) but higher than 0Â°C (32Â°F) (which is the limit of perpetual frost climate). Tundra is designated ET. Tundra climate appears as a temperature province in C. W. Thornthwaite's 1931 classification.

definition	A climate which 1) has a mean temperature for the warmest month of less than 10Â°C (50Â°F), but higher than 0Â°C (32Â°F), 2) is not conducive to a permanent surficial cover of snow or ice, and 3) supports a tundra ecosystem.

editor note	Might need to add the KÃ¶ppen climate classifications. Climate conditions might be obsoleted. Warmest month and mean temperature are operationally defined, will need to sort these out. Focusing on physical differential like surface cover would be preferable, (but maybe not practical).
