    According to the study in Global Change Biology, the average yearly temperatures across the Alaskan and Canadian taiga ranged from −26.6 °C to 4.8 °C. This indicates the extremely cold weather the taiga has for the majority of the year. As for precipitation, the majority of it is snow, but rain is also an important factor.

    The climate of the ecoregion is Subarctic climate, without dry season (Köppen climate classification Subarctic climate (Dfc)). This climate is characterized by mild summers (only 1-3 months above 10 °C (50.0 °F)) and cold, snowy winters (coldest month below −3 °C (26.6 °F)). [5] [6] Precipitation averages 200 - 400 mm/year.
