Temperate Rainforest Biome Research By Haley Green
Temperate RainforestGeography & Climate • Location: Europe and North America. • Description: New Zealand, southern Chile, Pacific ocean, and northwest of the U.S. • Soil Type: • Precipitation: 200cm-400cm per year. • Temperature Range: 9ocelcius- 12ocelcius. • Climate: Mild/ mountains block the ocean moisture.
Temperate RainforestBiodiversity • Plant Species: Douglas fir , western red cedar, spruce, mosses, and lichens. • Animal Species: Black bear, cougar, bobcat, endangered northern spotted owl, threatened marbled murrelet, salamander, lynx, wolf, elk, deer, and salmon.
Temperate RainforestAdaptations Needed for Survival • Plant: The spruce tree is tall, so it is able get sunlight. • Animal: The cougar is fast so it can catch prey.
Temperate RainforestInteractions of Biotic and Abiotic • Biotic: Birds eat cones when they fall from trees deer feed on the grass. • Abiotic: Water helps trees grow. Water, such as streams, support amphibians.
What is Biodiversity? • Biodiversity is the number of different organisms and species in an environment that work together in a habitat. There is also a lot of living bacteria in a habitat. Biodiversity also allows us as humans to live healthy and happy.
How does biodiversity contribute to the sustainability of an ecosystem? • If an ecosystem didn’t have biodiversty, then the ecosystem would crash, because there would be nothing in that area that is living.
