Mediterranean Climate has rich biodiversity in contrast to other sub-tropical climates such as Marine West Coast Climate Source - Read it in some recent GS mock paper
During summer, the region of mediterraean climate are dominated by subtropical high pressure cells. The subtropical highs are areas of sinking and settling air from higher altitudes which tend to build up atmospheric pressure.With dry sinking air capping a surface marine layer of varying humidity and making rainfall impossible or unlikely except for the occasional thunderstorm. while during winter the polar jet stream and associated periodic storms reach into the lower latitudes of the Mediterranean zones, bringing rain, with snow at higher elevations.thats why Mediterranean Climate have cold wet season.and dry summer season
