Brazil is characterized by the extensive low-lying Amazon Rainforest in the north and a more open terrain of hills and low mountains to the south — home to most of the Brazilian population and its agricultural base.
Located mainly within the tropics, Brazil 's climate has little seasonal variation. Southern Brazil , however, has a subtropical temperate weather, occasionally experiencing frost and snow in the higher regions. Precipitation is abundant in the humid Amazon Basin , but more arid landscapes are found as well, particularly in the northeast.
