The Kampar Kiri River is a river in central Sumatra , Indonesia , about 900 km northwest of the capital Jakarta . It is a tributary of the Kampar River .
7-516: The upstream of the Kampar Kiri River is known as the "Subayang River", which is the largest water body in the district of Kampar Kiri, Kampar Regency, province of Riau. The Subayang River rises in the province of West Sumatra, collecting water from smaller rivers, such as the Bio River and others. The downstream part is called the Kampar Kiri River and also Gunung Sahilan River. During wet seasons,
14-473: Is May, when the average temperature is around 24 °C, and the coldest is January, at 22 °C. The average annual rainfall is 3007 mm. The wettest month is November, with an average of 443 mm rainfall, and the driest is June, with 137 mm rainfall. 0°16′13″N 101°40′43″E / 0.2702°N 101.6787°E / 0.2702; 101.6787 Tropical rainforest climate A tropical rainforest climate or equatorial climate
21-453: Is a tropical climate sub-type usually found within 10 to 15 degrees latitude of the equator . There are some other areas at higher latitudes, such as the coast of southeast Florida, United States, and Okinawa, Japan that fall into the tropical rainforest climate category. They experience high mean annual temperatures, small temperature ranges, and rain that falls throughout the year. Regions with this climate are typically designated Af by
28-480: Is high throughout the months. One day in a tropical rainforest climate can be very similar to the next, while the change in temperature between day and night may be larger than the average change in temperature during the year. When tropical rainforest climates are more dominated by the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) than the trade winds (and with no or rare cyclones), so usually located near
35-454: The Köppen climate classification . A tropical rainforest climate is typically hot, very humid, and wet with no dry season . Tropical rainforests have a type of tropical climate (at least 18 C or 64.4 F in their coldest month) in which there is no dry season —all months have an average precipitation value of at least 60 mm (2.4 in). There are no distinct wet or dry seasons as rainfall
42-519: The equator, they are also called equatorial climates. Otherwise, when they are more dominated by the trade winds than the ITCZ, they are called tropical trade-wind climates. In pure equatorial climates, the atmospheric pressure is almost constantly low so the horizontal pressure gradient is low. Consequently, the winds are rare and usually weak (except sea and land breezes in coastal areas) while in tropical trade-wind climates, often located at higher latitudes than
49-519: The high rainfall causes the Kampar Kiri River to flood the surrounding area, especially with the addition of high discharge from the Subayang River in its upstream. The river flows in the central area of Sumatra with predominantly tropical rainforest climate (designated as Af in the Köppen–Geiger climate classification ). The annual average temperature in the area is 23 °C. The warmest month
