Tropics area
The tropics are defined as all areas located between 23.4 degrees north and south latitude because they are exposed to direct radiation from the sun for part of the year.
The tropics include the Equator and parts of North America, South America, Africa, Asia, and Australia.
The tropics account for 36 percent of Earth's landmass and are home to about a third of the world's people.

Consistent warmth and very small day-to-day temperature fluctuations
Temperature is averaging 25 to 28 degrees Celsius (77 to 82 degrees Fahrenheit).This is because the tropics get more exposure to the sun.
A small annual range of temperature
Near the Equator, the difference in mean temperature between the warmest and coldest months is rarely more than 4°C, and at some locations it is less than 1°C.
