Morphology

seasonless = season (transparent) = season + less

The adjective is a straightforward derivation: 'season' (period of the year) + '-less' meaning 'without', so meaning is directly inferable.

Etymology

Seasonless is made from season ('time of year') and -less ('without'), so it literally means 'without seasons'. So a seasonless climate shows little or no change in weather during the year.
