Joshy Yesudasan Climatogram Project According to the climatograms that we were given our local climatogram most resembled the mid latitude (temperate) grassland biome of Lawrence‚ Kansas . I arrived at this conclusion by comparing the two climatogram graphs and noticing a striking resemblance. The precipitation and temperature were almost exactly the same. Although they have similar qualities‚ the two climatograms also have many distinct differences. In our local biome we can observe that there

"TEMPERATE GRASSLAND" Temperate grasslands are defined as places where grasses predominate over trees and shrubs. The name for this biome‚ temperate grasslands‚ is a great description for what it is like there. The most important plants in this biome are grasses. Two major kinds of grasslands in the world: • Savannas • Temperate grasslands. Savannas are defined as places where individual shrubs and trees are scattered among the grasses. Temperate grasslands: trees and shrubs are

A Temperate Deciduous Forest is one of many biomes in the world. The biome has its own set of location‚ climate‚ and type of wildlife.The Temperate Deciduous Forest is found in almost every continent on the earth. Its climate is in the temperature range‚ hence its name. But the wildlife is unique in its own way in this biome. Temperate Deciduous Forest is found in all of the continents except Africa and Antarctica. It covers almost 50% of the United States is covered by the Temperate Deciduous Forest

Temperate Deciduous Forest Geographical location- The Temperate Deciduous Forest is 30 degrees north and 30 degrees south of the equator. This climate can be found in the north in North America‚ Europe and Asia. In the south‚ the climate can be found with South America‚ Australia‚ and Africa. Climate facts- the average temperature is 50 degrees (24 degrees celsius) and its high is 86 degrees‚ this factor depends on the altitude of the forest. The temperate deciduous forest receives an average

The temperate forest is an area of the world that has high levels of precipitation and humidity. They contain a wide variety of deciduous trees‚ which are trees that lose their leaves in the winter. The temperatures of the temperate forests vary based on the four seasons. It is typically hot in the summer with high temperatures of 86 degrees and cold in the winter. These areas receive large amounts of precipitation in the form of rain and snow. Eastern Asia‚ Central and Western Europe‚ and the Eastern

Such forests reign the tropics primarily as broadleaf evergreens‚ and in temperate and boreal latitudes primarily asconiferous evergreens Tropical deciduous forest Deciduous means "falling off at maturity" or "tending to fall off"‚ and is typically used in reference to trees or shrubs that lose theirleaves seasonally‚ and

Temperate forests of Chile are in danger of losing native forest cover due to human alterations. When one mentions deforestation‚ the primary cause one will most probably think of will be conversion to agricultural land. While that is partly the reason for why native temperate forests are losing ground in Chile‚ the authors of this paper offers another underlying cause- native forests are being overrun by exotic tree species introduced by humans to supply raw resources for paper. Large areas of

Some of the major effects of deforestation include biodiversity loss‚ local climate change and global warming. Farmers often have trouble raising crops‚ which typically results in more problems‚ such as an increase in food prices. Soil erosion and cultural displacement also can occur. Those who want to address the problem have a variety of options‚ however. Biodiversity Loss A loss of biodiversity often follows a reduction in the amount of forested land. Trees‚ shrubs and other plants provide shelter
