    Tropical savannas or grasslands are associated with the tropical wet and dry climate type. A tropical wet and dry climate predominates in areas covered by savanna growth. Average monthly temperatures are at or above 64° F. Although these areas are overall very dry, they do have a season of heavy rain. Annual rainfall is from 20-50 inches per year. It is crucial that the rainfall is concentrated in six or eight months of the year, followed by a long period of drought when fires can occur. If the rain were well distributed throughout the year, many such areas would become tropical forest.…

    Coral Reef Biome

    • 532 Words
    • 3 Pages

    Though not considered a major biome, coral reefs qualify by definition. Coral reefs are marine ecosystems located within clear, shallow water. These reefs require water between 25 and 31 degrees Celsius, and do well in water with a salinity of 34 and 37 parts per 1000. These conditions are most often found within 30 degrees latitude of the equator, or in other words, the tropics. As the name suggests, corral reefs are formed by colonies of coral polyps. Coral polyps secrete calcium carbonate (limestone) which forms the reefs. The polyps receive oxygen and nutrition through photosynthesis preformed by zooxanthellae algae. The necessity of large amounts of sunlights further restricts the environments in which these reefs can flourish. Reefs develop into three different formations. Fringing reefs occur along shorelines, and are frequently found on Hawaii and the Caribbean. Barrier reefs are formed offshore, and occur often in the Indo-Pacific and Caribbean. Atolls are reefs surrounding a lagoon, and are commonly found in the Indo-Pacific. Though different in appearance and location, each reef is part of the larger coral reef biome.…

    Biodiversity is especially affected in the Tropical Equatorial Biome where biodiversity is very high. The biodiversity is high due to the climate allowing for a yearlong growing season. The climate has a constantly high temperature of around degrees, varying by only a few degrees throughout the year due to its position close to the equator where there is an overhead sun. There is also a high rainfall of around 2000mm a year due to convectional currents, also a consequence of the overhead sun. The yearlong growing season means there is always a supply of food for animals to maintain their populations. The climate allows for a large biomass of vegetation too, which means lots of species can grow and provide food for a large variety of animal species, further increasing biodiversity.…
