DECIDUOUS FORESTGeography & Climate • Location: North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Australia • Description: located in the mid-latitude areas which mean they are found between polar regions and tropics • Soil Type: 5 layers including a surface layer of decomposing plant depris and a zone of leaching • Precipitation: 750 and 1,500mm of rain per year • Temperature Range: -30 degrees Celcius to 30 degrees celcius • Climate: hot summers and cold winters
DECIDUOUS FORESTBiodiversity • Plant species: Grandfolia,Hornum,Xeuropaea ,Opulus, Flex Femina, Recognitum, Illinoensis, Ovata, Volemus, Papyrifera, Alba • Animal Species: Leucocephslus, Americanus, Latrans, Anafinus, Striatus, Vulgaris, Glis, Nivalis, Viginianus
DECIDUOUS FORESTAdaptations Needed for Survival • Plant: Broad Leaves can capture alot of sunlight for a tree • Many trees have thick bark to protect against the cold winters in the temprature deciduous forest • In the autum, deciduous trees drop their leaves to minimize water loss • Animals: bear, squirrels
DECIDUOUS FORESTInteractions of Biotic and Abiotic • Biotic: The rabbit eats the grass. • Abiotic: The duck swam in the water.
