Köppen-Geiger climate classification

Today I thought it might be good to look for earthships that have been build in more or less the same conditions as they are in coastal Cameroon. In high school I was taught the Koppen climate system, so I looked it up and found an official Koppen website.

As you can see on the map the climate in coastal Cameroon is defined as Af or Am, meaning: Equatorial fully humid / monsoonal. On the map you can see that there are a lot of similar areas around the world. It’s all the dark red areas that might have good reference earthships.

On the official Earthship Biotecture website there is a section containing a global overview of all eartships. When browsing it I found that there are earthships in Hawaii, Florida, Bonaire, Brazil, Jamaica and Nicaragua that might be good examples!
