### Climatograph for Temperate Deciduous Forest

This graph represents the climatological data for a temperate deciduous forest, showing the average monthly precipitation and temperature.

#### Key Components:

- **X-Axis (Months):** 
  - Represents the 12 months of the year from January (J) to December (D).

- **Y-Axis:**
  - **Left Axis (Precipitation in mm):** Measures the monthly average precipitation in millimeters, ranging from 0 to 80 mm.
  - **Right Axis (Temperature in °C):** Measures the monthly average temperature in degrees Celsius, ranging from 0 to 30 °C.

#### Data Representation:

- **Precipitation (Blue Bars):**
  - The blue bars depict the average monthly precipitation levels. 
  - Precipitation tends to be fairly consistent throughout the year, with slight increases in the summer months (June to August).

- **Temperature (Orange Line):**
  - The orange line indicates the average monthly temperature.
  - Temperature rises from January, peaking in July and August, before declining again in the fall months.

#### Observations:

- **Winter Months (December to February):**
  - Lower temperatures, averaging around 0 to 5 °C.
  - Precipitation remains moderately consistent around 40-50 mm.

- **Spring and Summer (March to August):**
  - Gradual increase in temperature, peaking around 25 °C in July and August.
  - Precipitation slightly increases during this period, with the highest levels noted in July.

- **Autumn (September to November):**
  - Temperatures begin to decrease again, ranging from 20 °C in September to around 10 °C in November.
  - Precipitation remains stable.

This climatograph provides a visual summary of the typical climate pattern in a temperate deciduous forest, highlighting seasonal changes in temperature and precipitation.
