BIOMES CONTAIN MANY ECOSYSTEMS

4-3 Biomes Environments are grouped into BIOMES group of ecosystems that have same climate & dominant communities.

Biomes A major biological community that occurs over a large area of land is called a biome. Seven major biomes cover most of the Earth’s land surface.

Biomes. Tundra Abiotic: gets really cold, little rain, ground is permafrost. Vegetation - few trees, mainly grasses, bushes, and lichens Animals - arctic.

Biomes By: Jon Wilson. Temperate Rain Forest Temperate rain forests have moderate temperatures. They receive more than 300 cm of precipitation each year.

Biomes. The Biosphere is divided into regions called Biomes. Each Biome is occupied by characteristic communities or ecosystems of plants and animals.

LAND BIOMES. Tundra inches of precipitation per year Winter -15 Summer 54F Soil is permafrost; frozen or partly frozen year round; fragile environment.

Biomes  Tropical Rainforest  Deciduous Rainforest  Temperate Rainforest  Desert  Grasslands  Tundra  Taiga  Savanna  Freshwater  Marine  Estuary Definition:Areas of the world characterized by average temperature and precipitation

Tundra Cold, Dry, Treeless Less than 25cm of precipitation -12 degrees Celsius(10.4 F) - Average Temperature Permafrost - Frozen Ground Vegetation - Lichen (algae+fungus), grasses Animals – Caribou, Wolves Musk Oxen Lemming, Fox Sand Pipers Weasel Ducks

Coniferous Forest Also known as "taiga" - "swamp forest" - due to complete thawing of snow which creates a wet summer environment Largest biome South of the Tundra Cold cm of precipitation a year

Vegetation includes: firs, spruce, pines (and other cone-bearing trees) Animals include: moose beaver grouse cross-bills Coniferous Forest

Deciduous Forest cm of precipitation degrees Celsius Vegetation includes: Oaks, Maples, and other deciduous trees which lose their leaves in the fall. Animals include: Deer, Mice, Wood Peckers, Blue Jays
