it leads me to more complex issues that I don't understand or that I don't really need.
That's the thing with climates: complex and your not always sure if it's going to be useful.

Anyway, can you provide a full world map? At least, just place you continent on an empty world map. If you just want a rough idea, it would work just fine. We can guess what the climates are compared to Earth an some basic knowledge of climatology...
