Hartwig is a scientific publication written in the late 19th century. This work explores the interactions of humanity and nature in the equatorial regions of the globe, highlighting the remarkable biodiversity and climatic variations found within tropical environments. It delves into the rich tapestry of life in these regions, detailing the plants, animals, and human cultures that thrive in such diverse ecosystems. The opening of "The Tropical World" discusses the intricate climatic patterns within the tropics, focusing on the effects of trade winds, rainfall distribution, and their role in shaping the environment. Hartwig describes how these climatic factors contribute to the lushness of tropical vegetation and the varied life forms that inhabit these areas. He emphasizes the significance of oceanic currents and geographical features that modulate temperatures and weather patterns. By introducing the fundamental concepts of tropical climates and their impacts on both flora and fauna, the text sets the stage for a comprehensive examination of the tropical world in subsequent chapters.
