The Arctic Tundra ecosystem Arctic tundra is located in the northern hemisphere‚ encircling the North Pole and extending south to the coniferous forests of the taiga. The arctic is known for its cold‚ desert-like conditions. All of the plants are adapted to sweeping winds and disturbances of the soil. Plants are short and group together to resist the cold temperatures and are protected by the snow during the winter. They can carry out photosynthesis at low temperatures and low light intensities

a Forest Ecosystem? Forests are important ecosystems that provide environmental and economic benefits. Forest ecosystems are unique environments and are categorized based on the types and ages of trees‚ climate and soil. They impact the environment at scales ranging from local to regional‚ by influencing climate‚ nutrient dynamics and water movement. Forests are found all over the world‚ and they provide valuable economic and environmental services. Information About a Forest Ecosystem A forest

A Balanced Ecosystem - An Aquarium The term ecosystem describes both the living and non-living components of an area that interact with one another. All the components are inter-dependant in some way with each other. An ecosystem may be aquatic or terrestrial. In an aquatic ecosystem rocks are needed for shelter and plants provide oxygen for fish. An ecosystem is balanced when the natural animals and plants and non-living components are in harmony- i.e. there is nothing to disturb the balance.

of an ecosystem Located 20km out of Portland; Bridgewater Bay has many secluded rock pool locations that are accessible to biologists for investigation. In this experiment‚ the aim was to study small sections of a rock poll that contained a distribution of organisms. These organisms that were located were found in the littoral zone of Bridgewater’s rocky seashore. A littoral zone is made up of a community of aquatic organisms habiting the narrow strip of coast. The organisms that were studied included

Bees are very important to our ecosystem. People don’t really care about bees and just only think that they only make honey and pollinate flowers. Bees do a lot more than just make honey‚ pollinate flowers or sting living things for defensive purposes.

Bees do a lot for the ecosystem‚ the main thing that they do is pollinate. “Pollination

A Study on Mangrove Ecosystems Ecosystems are very delicate mechanisms‚ and the mangroves are particularly fragile. Mangroves rely on a multifaceted interface comprising of their land position‚ rainfall hydrology‚ sedimentation‚ subsidence‚ sea level‚ storms‚ pest-predator relationships and many other biogeochemical and environmental factors. Any one of these interactions becoming skewed or unsettled can lead to a rapid decline in the numbers of the mangroves in any environment. A relatively simple
