Talk:Trevelin

Trevelín or Trevelin?
I think that the correct name of the town is Trevelin. It's stressed on the second syllable. Danoples 03:16, 15 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Certainly the official Turismo Chubut site uses Trefelin rather than Trevelín. Rhion 17:46, 25 December 2006 (UTC)

Köppen climate classification
There have been disputed edits for the Köppen climate classification for Trevelin. Classification codes Csb and Cfc have been asserted. I have also considered Cfb, but I think that Dsb probably correct.

The rules are presented in Köppen climate classification in two stages:


 * Group A: Tropical (megathermal) climates This type of climate has every month of the year with an average temperature of 18 °C (64.4 °F) or higher, with significant precipitation. Trevelin is too cold.
 * Group B: Dry (arid and semiarid) climates
 * Group C: Temperate (mesothermal) climates This type of climate has the coldest month averaging between 0 °C (32 °F) and 18 °C (64.4 °F) and at least one month averaging above 10 °C (50 °F).
 * Group D: Continental (microthermal) climates This type of climate has at least one month averaging below 0 °C (32 °F) and at least one month averaging above 10 °C (50 °F).
 * Group E: Polar and alpine (montane) climatesThis type of climate has every month of the year with an average temperature below 10 °C (50 °F).

So the correct code will be in group D or possibly group C. I will now consider some of the subgroups:


 * Cfb = Temperate oceanic climate; coldest month averaging above 0 °C, all months with average temperatures below 22 °C, and at least four months averaging above 10 °C. No significant precipitation difference between seasons (neither abovementioned set of conditions fulfilled).
 * Cfc = Subpolar oceanic climate; coldest month averaging above 0 °C and 1–3 months averaging above 10 °C. No significant precipitation difference between seasons (neither abovementioned set of conditions fulfilled).
 * Csa = Hot-summer Mediterranean climate; coldest month averaging above 0 °C and at least one month's average temperature above 22 °C and at least four months averaging above 10 °C. At least three times as much precipitation in the wettest month of winter as in the driest month of summer, and driest month of summer receives less than 30 mm.
 * Dsb = Warm, dry-summer continental climate; coldest month averaging below 0 °C, all months with average temperatures below 22 °C, and at least four months averaging above 10 °C. At least three times as much precipitation in the wettest month of winter as in the driest month of summer, and driest month of summer receives less than 30 mm.

As far as I can see, Trevelin meets the conditions of none of the classes. The closest appear to be Csa (Hot-summer Mediterranean climate) and Dsb (Warm, dry-summer continental climate). Both of these fail because the driest month receives 35 mm of precipitation against the same 30 mm threshold. Csa also fails the coolest month test which Dsb just passes.

On this basis I will change the article to "Dsb(Warm, dry-summer continental climate)". However, I am not an expert and my analysis (or the Köppen climate classification article) may be incorrect. Verbcatcher (talk) 02:14, 17 April 2017 (UTC)


 * I inteded to have Csb, not Csa:
 * Csb = Warm-summer Mediterranean climate; coldest month averaging above 0 °C, all months with average temperatures below 22 °C, and at least four months averaging above 10 °C. At least three times as much precipitation in the wettest month of winter as in the driest month of summer, and driest month of summer receives less than 30 mm.
