Tundra Danielle Hickman

What is a Tundra a vast, flat, treeless Arctic region of Europe, Asia, and North America in which the subsoil is permanently frozen

Temperature

Annual Rainfall Between 6 to 10 inches That includes melted snow.

Vegetation Arctic moss Arctic willow Bearberry Caribou moss Diamond – leaf willow Labrador tea Pasque flower Tufted saxifrage

Animals Polar bear Musk oxen Arctic fox Ermine Grizzly bear Snowy owl

Net Primary Production Lowest of many ecosystems It is about 0.6% of worlds total

Location Very high latitude Above 61° north

Limiting Factors Temperature Nutrient availability Moisture levels

Human Impact Lichen is a food source for many animals and air pollution is creating smog clouds that contaminate the lichen. Oil rigs and the creation of roads through the tundra is destroying the habitat for the animals and plants that live there. If oil was to spill here it could many of the animals and plants causing near extinction for some.
