Ive done some poking around and have come up with a couple sites that
might be of interest:
http://www.algy.com/herb/zoneeur.html - This site has a map of
climate zones in the U.K. based on the same numbering system that the U.S.
uses.
http://pathfinder.com/@@Uzh9WQYA0fUglW2O/vg/TimeLife/ZoneFinder/zoneinfo.html
- Yes this address is correct, even with the 'at' symbols and letter jumble.
This site has a map of climate zones for the U.S. but does go into detail
about subzones (something like zone 9b or the like).
http://www.res.for.gov.bc.ca/projects/bec_doc.html#BEC - This
describes
zones which may be clicked to see a map of British Columbia with only
that zone hilighted. Not as intuitive as the others but may be helpfull
to those living in British Columbia.
http://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/onlineprod/gsod/climvis/gsod.html - While this
does not have a climate map on it, its features make it just about 10x better
than all the previous maps. This site has a map of the world which is
clickable. Clicking on the area of interests brings up a form requesting a
further political division. This in turn brings up a form asking for one or
two attributes (such as minimum temp and maximum temp, etc), and for a time
range (say Dec 1994 to present) and will create a graph showing the attribute
variations over time.
I found these after about 20 minutes of web searching at work so I
wasnt able to do a very exhaustive search due to my having real work to do :)
I did search around on the USDA web site but could not find any climate maps.
Most of the information I found was text based and not very concise.
Hope this helps.
