The '''tropics''' is the Equatorial region between the [[Tropic of Cancer]] and the [[Tropic of Capricorn]]. It is characterized by generally warm or hot temperatures year-round, thought much variation exists due to altitude and other factors. Temperate zones north and south of the tropics generally have a [[winter]] season.
