Koppen was a famous German Climatologist who first presented the classification of climate of the world in the year 1900. He also revised his classification several times during 1900 to 1936. He considered the temperature, rainfall and their seasonal nature as the basis of his classification and tried to establish their relation with vegetation. He believed that the best view of the total climate is found in natural vegetation. In this way, Koppen adopted such a quantitative method of the classification of climate where climate can establish a deep relation with vegetation.
