In tropical and other climates typified by hot days and cool nights, the high thermal mass of adobe levels out the heat transfer through the wall to the living space.

Although amaranth was cultivated on a large scale in ancient Mexico, Guatemala, and Peru, nowadays it is only cultivated on a small scale there, along with India, China, Nepal, and other tropical countries ; thus, there is potential for further cultivation in those countries, as well as in the U. S. In a 1977 article in Science, amaranth was described as " the crop of the future.

The intense vomiting and occasional diarrhea it induces can clear the body of worms and other tropical parasites, and harmala alkaloids themselves have been shown to be anthelmintic Thus, this action is twofold ; a direct action on the parasites by these harmala alkaloids ( particularly harmine in ayahuasca ) works to kill the parasites, and parasites are expelled through the increased intestinal motility that is caused by these alkaloids.

Situations often take the characters to other destinations, including New York City, Washington, D. C., Hollywood, tropical islands, the Moon, Mars, and some purely fanciful worlds of Capp's invention.

The Bailey system, based on climate, is divided into seven domains ( polar, humid temperate, dry, humid, and humid tropical ), with further divisions based on other climate characteristics ( subarctic, warm temperate, hot temperate, and subtropical ; marine and continental ; lowland and mountain ).

This area of tropical forest has been categorised by the World Wildlife Fund as the Cameroonian Highlands forests ecoregion with Mount Cameroon considered separately because as an active volcano it has a distinct environment from the other mountains.

Pereskia species superficially resemble other tropical forest trees.

CO < sub > 2 </ sub > is produced by fossil fuel burning and other activities such as cement production and tropical deforestation.

As phytoplankton and forests are the main ways in which Gaia draws down greenhouse gases, particularly carbon dioxide, taking it out of the atmosphere, the elimination of this environmental buffering will see, according to Lovelock, most of the earth becoming uninhabitable for humans and other life-forms by the middle of this century, with a massive extension of tropical deserts.

Their buildings were probably built of wood, palm fronds and other perishable materials, which would have quickly decayed in the salt and wind of the tropical climate.

Coral reefs also support a huge community of life, including the corals themselves, their symbiotic zooxanthellae, tropical fish and many other organisms.

Nigeria, like the rest of West Africa and other tropical lands, has only two seasons.

From 135, 000 to 90, 000 years ago tropical Africa had megadroughts which drove the humans from the land towards the sea shores and forced them to cross over to other continents.
