Geography internal 2.5B How does location affect vegetation growth? I will be looking at several factors that affect growth‚ such as density‚ height of plants‚ how different altitudes affects plant growth‚ temperature variations and wind speeds. All these are contribution factors that I assume will influence vegetation growth in the TVC. I discovered that all of the 6 sites that we visited had unique characteristics that made each one different. Some of the landscapes were baron and had very

Climate‚ vegetation and fire influence positive and/or negative actions imposed on one another. Climate affects vegetation by means of any form of precipitation (rain‚ snow‚ fog‚ etc). Climate also affects the different types of vegetations that will burn after long periods or seasonally due to the variables of precipitation. Fires can be caused through natural impacts or through human endeavors. Fires usually arise after long dry hot periods in windy weather when humidity is relatively low. Under
