Biomes Biome: an area that can be identified by its dominant plant (flora) and animal species (fauna) and prevailing climate

Climate: the temperature range, annual average precipitation, humidity, sunshine and wind in a region http://www.usclimatedata.com/climate/yellowstone-national-park/wyoming/united-states/uswy0292

Climax community: Plant and animal species that represent a stable state in a biome—after succession

Is it the biotic or abiotic factors that influence biomes?

☻Tundra ☻

Tundra

Tundra Low amount of precipitation Constant permafrost layer (ice) Caribou, polar bears, birds, insects, fish, wolves Some short grasses and shrubs, lichen, moss

☻ Desert ☻

☻ Desert ☻

Desert The LEAST amount of precipitation Lizards, snakes, rabbits, kangaroo rats—least amount of living organisms Cacti, small shrubs, sagebrush Varying temperatures

☻Boreal Forest (Taiga or Coniferous Forest) ☻

☻ Taiga or Coniferous Forest ☻

Coniferous Coniferous trees—pine, spruce, fir, hemlock (have needles) Cooler temperatures, long winters, shorter summers Many lakes and bogs Birds, moose, beaver, deer, mountain lion

Temperate Deciduous Forest

☻Temperate Deciduous Forest☻

Trees lose their leaves—oak, maple, beech Squirrels, rabbit, skunk, deer, black bears Seasonal changes

☻ Tropical Rainforest ☻

Tropical Rainforest

Rainforest Greatest animal diversity—colorful birds, chimpanzees, tigers, bats, snakes Lots of precipitation but little reaches the ground Hot and humid Colorful plants and vegetation

☻ Temperate Grassland ☻

Temperate Grassland

Grassland Hot summers, cold winters Fertile soil used for farming, very few trees Gazelle, buffalo, horses, cattle, prairie dogs, antelope Grasses and herbs

Savanna

Savanna Year round warm temperatures Open areas of grasslands, few trees Elephants, zebra, gazelle, rhinos, cheetahs, lions

Savanna

Chaparral

Chaparral Warm, dry climate Dry summers often cause drought conditions Shrubs, wildflowers, and grasses are common Variety of small animals such as birds, reptiles, insects and small mammals
