Abstract

Climate is an important factor influencing all ecosystems. Adaptations to local climatic conditions will be found everywhere. ViSCA, Baybay, Leyte is characterized by a moist tropical climate with rainfall that is statistically distributed equally throughout the year. However dry periods occur regularly and more often than would be expected from the average data. They can lead to droughts in certain parts of the environment.
