microklimaattia
Microklimaattia refers to the climatic conditions within a small, localized area that differ from the general climate of the surrounding region. These variations can be caused by a variety of factors, including topography, vegetation, and the presence of water bodies. For instance, a dense forest might create a microclimate that is cooler and more humid than an adjacent open field due to the shade provided by the trees and the release of moisture through transpiration. Similarly, urban areas often exhibit a distinct microclimate known as an urban heat island effect, where built structures absorb and retain more heat than natural landscapes, leading to higher temperatures.
The scale of a microclimate can vary significantly, from the area beneath a single rock to a
