equatorial regions

Equatorial regions are areas located near the equator, typically between latitudes 0° and 10° north and south. These regions experience consistently warm temperatures throughout the year and receive heavy rainfall, resulting in lush, tropical rainforests. The climate is characterized by minimal seasonal variation, with wet and dry periods rather than typical seasons. This environment supports diverse ecosystems, rich in plant and animal life. Countries like Brazil, Indonesia, and the Democratic Republic of Congo are examples of areas within the equatorial zone, playing crucial roles in global biodiversity and climate regulation.
