Both tropical wet and tropical wet-and-dry climates are found near the equator and typically experience high temperatures year-round. The main difference is the amount of precipitation they receive: tropical wet climates have consistent rainfall throughout the year, while tropical wet-and-dry climates have distinct wet and dry seasons.

Coffee grows in tropical wet climates such as Costa Rica and can also grow in dry climates too.
Some climates found in the US but not in Canada include desert climates (e.g. in Arizona and Nevada), tropical climates (e.g. in Hawaii and Florida), and subtropical climates (e.g. in parts of the southern US like Louisiana and Georgia). These climates are characterized by different temperature and precipitation patterns compared to Canada.

Dry-summer tropical climates are typically found in southern Florida, including the Florida Keys. These areas experience a wet season in the summer and a dry season in the winter, with warm temperatures throughout the year. The climate is characterized by high humidity and frequent rainfall during the wet season.
The amount and distribution of precipitation is the main factor that distinguishes wet tropical climates from tropical wet and dry climates. Wet tropical climates have high and consistent rainfall throughout the year, while tropical wet and dry climates have distinct wet and dry seasons.

Both tropical wet and tropical wet-and-dry climates are found near the equator and experience high temperatures year-round. The main difference is that tropical wet climates receive heavy rainfall throughout the year, while tropical wet-and-dry climates have distinct wet and dry seasons.

The distribution of annual precipitation
The two main types of tropical climates are tropical rainforest and tropical savanna. Tropical rainforest climates are characterized by high precipitation and constant high temperatures, leading to lush, dense rainforests. Tropical savanna climates have distinct wet and dry seasons, with grasslands and scattered trees as common vegetation.
