Equatorial region: Area between the tropics of Cancer and Capricorn, defined by the parallels of latitude approximately 23°30′ north and south of the Equator. They are the limits of the area of Earth's surface in which the Sun can be directly overhead. The mean monthly temperature is over 20°C/68°F.
