Subtropical regions are areas located between the tropics and temperate zones, typically characterized by warm to hot summers and mild winters. These regions often experience distinct wet and dry seasons, with rainfall varying significantly. Common vegetation includes evergreen forests, savannas, and deserts, depending on the specific climate and geography. The subtropical climate supports diverse ecosystems and agriculture, making it suitable for crops like citrus fruits, grapes, and cotton. Subtropical regions can be found on every continent, with notable examples including parts of the United States, Australia, and South Africa.
