CLIMATE
The climate of Maldives is warm year round, determined by the monsoons. However, being on the equator, the monsoons are mild and not as defined as in neighbouring countries. Of the two monsoons, the south west monsoon from May to October, brings more rain and wind. The north east monsoon, from November to April, is the dry season with very little wind. The temperature varies little with an annual average daily maximum of 30.4 degrees Celsius and the minimum at 2.4 degrees Celsius. The annual rainfall stood at just over 1,600 millimetres in 1992. In the same year, the country, with the equator running through it, had over 2700 hours of sunshine. 1984-1995 Average:
  • annual rainfall 1918.5 mm

    http://www.seaworldmaldives.com/maldives/geography.htm
    Measuring 820km North to South and 120 km East to West, Maldivian archipelago is made up 1,190 small tropical coral islands which are further grouped together to form atolls. Maldives is located partly north and partly south of the Equator, between 7 6’ 30” and 41’ 48” south and between 72 32’ 30” and 73 45’ 54” east of Greenwich. The Maldivian atolls have been referred to as one of the finest example of Atolls in the world, which is further strengthened by the fact that the name Atoll is derived from the Maldivian word “Atholhu”. It is said that the formation of these atolls are due to submergence of a volcanic mountain range- leaving corals reefs encircling a shallow water filled lagoons- and later islands developed with the effect of currents and tides depositing coral debris and eventually colonized by plants and trees. Maldives does not have mountains, hills or rivers and the highest point in Maldives is barely over 1.5 meter above sea level. Some large island have small fresh water lakes or brackish water lined by mangrove trees.

    Over the last year the government has established regional development and management offices in the Northern and Southern Development Regions, which include three and four atolls respectively.
    The national perspective
    With regional development as the foundation of the process, there is also the question of overall economic development. The Maldivian economy is based on two principal industries: fisheries and tourism, both of which rely almost completely on the international economy for their growth and development. They are also the largest employers and the source of livelihood for the large majority. But they are, nonetheless, fragile.
