Lesson 5: The Geography of the Mediterranean World Medieval Europe Question 7 In this climate zone, winters are cool and summers are warm, it rains moderately throughout the year, and clouds, fog, and drizzle are common. Soils are generally heavy and sticky due to high levels of clay. Color the areas of Europe in the “humid oceanic”climate zone green. Medieval farmers used plows to break up the soil here. They rotated their crops (e.g., planting wheat or rye in the fall, oats or barley in the spring). What does this tell you about the climateand soil in this zone?
