Biomes and Diversity The importance of Biomes is regulated and should be preserved by the environment for which any particular organism is located. The ecosystems composed in relation to the Biomes differ from region to region so a controlled system most be established to balance the growth of dominant inviters. This can help stop the lose of any one particular Biome. One for instance of lose of Biomes accrued when humans take over land for the development of homes‚ mini malls‚ and so on

The Taiga Biome is the largest biome‚ it Extends across Europe‚ Asia‚ and North America. The Taiga is known for having both Coniferous and boreal forest. Fires happen very often in the Taiga. There isn’t much diversity in the plants. They have lots of Conifer trees which is why it’s known to have the Coniferous forest. These trees are said to be evergreens which means they are green all year long‚ nor drop their leaves. A quick fun Fact: Most scientist believe that the Taiga biome was once completely

Luis Perez 11/23/10 6th The Tundra Biome Being the coldest and least filled with plant life‚ the tundra biome is noted as frost-molded landscapes with extreme temperatures. The tundra biome has low biotic diversity‚ low precipitation‚ and all around low‚ cold temperatures. The average temperature of the biome varies going from -25’C to 3’C between the months of January to July‚ then reverting from 3’C to -25’C between the months of July to December. Through those temperatures it causes a cycle

Global warming has many effects on the Earth such as rise in sea level‚ overall increased rise in the temperature of Earth‚ and even bizarre weather. However‚ the topic I will discuss today is how global warming causes climate changes and how this climate change affects our environment and our economic systems. Climate

The Freshwater Biome By Lauren Finnis The freshwater biome is a complex biome that can be found all over the world. There are two major types of freshwater biomes. The first type is lotic or running which include rivers and streams. Lentic or standing is the second type; those include lakes and ponds. Since this biome is found worldwide‚ the species that reside in it can vary extensively‚ but usually it contains several species of fish‚ plants‚ and insects. Predation is a way of life in the freshwater

Research Paper The ocean is one of‚ if not‚ the largest biome on earth. There are more than one million species of marine life. Covering over 70 percent of the Earth’s surface‚ the ocean is our planet’s largest habitat‚ containing 99 percent of the living space on the planet. This area holds the life of nearly 50 percent of all species on Earth. Like lakes‚ oceans are subdivided into separate zones: intertidal‚ pelagic‚ abyssal‚ and benthic. All four zones have a great diversity of species. The

Payments for Ecosystem Services Ecosystems purify our air and water‚ help to control our climate and provide goods and services that are often impossible to replace. However‚ many ecosystems are under threat. As the world’s population continues to grow‚ consumption of food‚ water‚ and other materials increases and the ecosystems that provide for these needs are being over-burdened and in some cases destroyed. The concept of Payments for Ecosystem Services (PES) - also refered to as Payments for

A habitat is an ecological or environmental area that is inhabited by a particular species of animal‚ plant‚ or other type of organism.[1][2] It is the natural environment in which an organism lives‚ or the physical environment that surrounds a speciespopulation.[3] A habitat is made up of physical factors such as soil‚ moisture‚ range of temperature‚ and availability of light as well as biotic factors such as the availability of food and the presence of predators. A habitat is not necessarily a

The beavers are an extraordinary creature. They are an animal that is mostly nocturnal‚ large‚ semi-aquatic rodent‚ and are of two different species. These two species are Castor Canadensis and Castor Fiber. They ate certain kinds of tree bark such as willows‚ maples‚ poplars‚ beeches‚ birches‚ alders‚ and aspens. Beavers have been known to erect dams eighteen feet high and four thousand feet long-radically altered ecosystems‚ creating ponds and changing stream flows. These were their homes
