Temperate Forests By JoAnna Krueger & Kara Motschall

Temperate deciduous forests are often found in eastern North America, northeastern Asia, and western and central Europe. 25 degrees and 50 degrees latitude (MbgNet)

(Wikipedia)

Climate -Four seasons -Hot summers, cool falls, rainy springs, extremely cold winters -Average annual temperature of 10 degrees C -Average temperature range of degrees C (Answers.com, eoEarth)

Climate -Has an annual precipitation of 76cm to 152 cm yearly -Limiting factors include: -Water sources -Temperature -Rainfall -Nitrogen -Phosphorus (eoEarth.com)

Wildlife Fauna - Mast-eaters (nut and acorn eaters) - Omnivores Adaptations - Survival in arboreal habitats (fur, hands) - Hibernation (thinkquest.com)

Wildlife Flora - Three to four different tree species per kilometer Maple, elm, beech Adaptations Broad leaves to catch sunlight Canopy is moderately dense (allows moderate sunlight) - High degree of biodiversity (thinkquest.com)

Temperate rainforests are located along the Northwestern coast of North America. They are also found in small areas in Southern Chile, New Zealand, and Australia. Mid Latitudes (Wikipedia.com, marietta.com)

Climate –Average annual temperature range Coolest- above 0 degrees C Influenced by nearby oceans Hottest- 20 degrees –Average annual rainfall of 150 cm –Limiting factors include Rainfall Sunlight (marietta.com)

Wildlife Fauna -Bears, raccoons, and deer that adjust to day/night climate changes -Slugs Adaptations -Moist/humid environments -Prevention of disaccation (marietta.com)

Wildlife Flora -Coniferous trees, Mountain Hemlock, Lodge Pole Pine -Mosses, lichens Adaptations -Moist environment -Minimal water stress Very high degree of biodiversity (marietta.com)

Comparisons Humidity allows a greater population of epiphytes Moses and fern more popular in temperate rainforests because of rain Broad-leafed plants are replaced by evergreen confiers
