What is the rain forests climate? By: Samuel S. Shelton An average year in a tropical rain forest, the climate is very humid because of all the rainfall, which amounts to about 250 cm per year. The rain forest has lots of rain because it is very hot and wet. This climate is found near the equator. That means that there is more direct sunlight hitting the land and sea there than anywhere else. The sun warms the land and sea and the water evaporates into the air. The warm air can hold a lot of water vapor. As the air rises, it cools. That means it can hold less water vapor. Then as warm meets cold, condensation takes place and the vapor forms droplets, and clouds form. The clouds then produce rain. It rains more than ninety days a year and the strong sun usually shines between the storms.
Where are the rainforestsLocated?By: Samuel S. SheltonOlympic Rain Forest - N. America Amazon Rain Forest - S. America Malaysian Rain Forest - Asia Congo River Basin - Africa Tasmanian Rain Forest - Australia Bialowieza Forest – EuropeSo I guess this is one from everywhere
The water cycle repeats often along the equator. The main plants in this biome are trees. A lot of the rain that falls on the rain forest never reaches the ground. It stays on the trees because the leaves act as a shield, and some rain never gets past the trees to the smaller plants and grounds below. Trees in this climate reach a height of more than 164 feet. They form a canopy. The forest floor is called under story. The canopy also keeps sunlight from reaching the plants in the under story. Between the canopy and under story is a lower canopy made up of smaller trees. These plants do receive some filtered sunlight.
