Leslie Holdridge's Life Zone Classification system is essentially a climate classification scheme.

Climate classification systems are ways of classifying the world's climates. A climate classification may correlate closely with a biome category, as climate is a major influence on biological life in a region. The most popular classification scheme is probably the Köppen climate classification scheme.

Climate classification systems include:

• Aridity index
• Köppen climate classification
• Holdridge Life Zone Classification System.

• Biome
• Ecological land classification
• Ecozone
