Explanation
The Mediterranean climate (Köppen classification Csa/Csb) is characterized by hot, dry summers and mild, wet winters. It typically occurs on the western fringes of continents. In the Levant region, countries with a direct coastline on the Mediterranean Sea exhibit this climate in their coastal and highland regions.
- Syria, Lebanon, and Israel all border the Mediterranean Sea and possess significant areas that experience a classic Mediterranean climate.
- Jordan is a landlocked country (except for a small coastline on the Gulf of Aqaba in the Red Sea). It is separated from the Mediterranean Sea by Israel and Palestine. Consequently, Jordan's climate is predominantly semi-arid (Steppe) and arid (Desert), characterized by much lower precipitation and different seasonal patterns compared to its Mediterranean neighbors.
