Climate encompasses the temperatures humidity rainfall atmospheric particle count and numerous other meteorogical factors in a given region over long periods of Depending on the location, temperature, daylight hours (photoperiod), and rainfall, may all be critical environmental factors. Temperature is a physical property of a system that underlies the common notions of hot and cold something that is hotter generally has the greater temperature Sunlight, in the broad sense is the total spectrum of the Electromagnetic radiation given off by the Sun. Photoperiodicity is the physiological reaction of organisms to the length of day or night Rain is Liquid precipitation. On Earth it is the condensation of atmospheric Water vapor into drops heavy enough to fall often making it to

In much of Europe, the growing season is defined as the average number of days a year with a 24-hour average temperature of at least 5 °C (6 °C is sometimes used). This is typically from April until October or November, although this varies considerably with latitude and altitude. Latitude, usually denoted symbolically by the Greek letter phi ( Φ) gives the location of a place on Earth (or other planetary body north or south of the Altitude is the Elevation of a point or object from a known level or datum (plural data
In the United Kingdom, the growing season is defined as starting when the temperature on five consecutive days exceeds 5 °C, and ends after five consecutive days of temperatures below 5 °C. The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, commonly known as the United Kingdom, the UK or Britain,is a Sovereign state located The 1961 to 1990 average season length was 252 days (8. 4 months).

In some warm climates (like in the subtropical Savanna), the growing season is limited by the availability of water, with little growth in the dry season. A savanna or savannah is a Tropical or Subtropical Grassland or Woodland Ecosystem.
