The image depicts two triangular diagrams representing tropical and temperate mountain altitudes, divided into various ecological zones. Tropical mountain altitude ranges from 0 to 5,500 meters (18,000 feet). Warm zone is 0-1,000 meters (0-3,300 feet) for tropical crops. Temperate zone is 1,000-2,000 meters (3,300-6,600 feet) for coffee and cocos. Cool zone is 2,000-3,000 meters (6,600-10,000 feet) for grain cultivation. Forest begins at 3,000 meters (10,000 feet), with a limit for broad-leaf trees at 3,500 meters (11,500 feet) and pine and firs limit at 4,000 meters (13,000 feet). Alpine meadows start at 4,000 meters (13,000 feet), snow line is at 5,000 meters (16,500 feet), and permanent snow begins at 5,500 meters (18,000 feet). Temperate mountain altitude ranges from 0 to 3,500 meters (12,000 feet). Warm zone is 0-500 meters (0-1,500 feet), Temperate zone is 500-1,000 meters (1,500-3,000 feet), Cool zone is 1,000-1,500 meters (3,000-5,000 feet) for grains, potatoes, flax. Forest begins at 1,500 meters (5,000 feet), with a limit for broad-leaf trees at 2,000 meters (6,500 feet) and spruce limit at 2,500 meters (8,500 feet). Alpine meadows start at 2,500 meters (8,500 feet), snow line is at 3,000 meters (10,000 feet), and permanent snow begins at 3,500 meters (12,000 feet).

The diagram compares the variation in temperature zones at different altitudes on tropical and temperate mountains.
Overall, both types of mountains show a similar progression of temperature zones from warm at the base to permanent snow at the summit, but they differ in the altitude ranges in the vegetation supported at each level.
In tropical mountains, the area from 0 to 600 meters is a warm zone, suitable for growing various tropical crops. Above this, the temperate zone extends from about 600 to over 1500 meters, where coffee and cocoa plantations are common. Meanwhile, grains are cultivated in a cool zone between about 2000 and 3000 meters, while the forest zone lies above this area. While the upper limit for broad-leaf trees is around 3000 meters, that for pines and firs is slightly higher, at just below 4000 meters. Additionally, alpine meadows and the zone of permanent snow occupy the uppermost parts of the mountain, separated by a snow line at around 4500 meters.
Concerning temperate mountains, there are four distinct zones. Firstly, the lowest altitude, from 0 to 5000 feet, is a cool zone, where grains, potatoes and flax are commonly cultivated. In addition, broad-leaf trees grow up to about 5000 feet, while spruce trees can be found as high as 6000 feet. Above this level are alpine meadows, and the peak of these mountains, reaching nearly 12000 feet, is covered with snow, throughout the period.
