AutumnThe ‘definition’ of Autumn depends on the context. In temperate places with deciduous trees it is the season following summer during which the leaves turn yellow, red and brown and fall (it is known as Fall in Canada and the USA). (Tropical climates do not have an Autumn: see dry season, wet season and monsoon). The Equinox marks the beginning of autumn (March 21/22 in the Southern Hemisphere, and June 21/22 in the Northern Hemisphere). | |
