A Walter-Lieth climate diagram (climograph) is the canonical visualization of a location's annual climate, plotting monthly mean temperature and monthly precipitation over the twelve months on a single panel. It uses the classic 1:2 axis-scaling convention where 10 °C on the temperature axis aligns with 20 mm on the precipitation axis, so the relationship between the two curves directly reveals water availability: where precipitation exceeds the temperature curve the period is humid (filled blue/hatched), and where the temperature curve rises above precipitation the period is arid (filled red/dotted). A header carries station metadata and annual means, while frost indicators along the baseline mark cold months.
