Exploring the Temperate Rainforest Climate: A Unique Biome

The temperate rainforest climate is characterized by average rainfall ranging from 200 to 340 cm and temperatures around 20°C, encompassing all four seasons. This smallest biome by coverage area thrives mainly near oceans, featuring foggy, moist conditions. Rich in biodiversity, it is home to conifers, mosses, lichens, and unique animals like the internally fertilizing frog. Adaptations such as thicker bark on trees and hibernation in animals underscore the resilience of this ecosystem, which faces increasing threats from human activities like clear-cutting and development.

Presentation Transcript

  1. Temperate Rainforest

  2. Climate • Average Rainfall- 200 to 340 cm • Average Temperature o C to 20 C • All 4 seasons • Mostly near oceans • Smallest biome by coverage area • Foggy and moist • Made up of conifers, mosses, and lichens

  3. Map Locations

  4. Plant’s Adaptations • Thicker bark on trees • Plants grow large leaves to absorb sunlight • The few deciduous trees lose leaves in winter to they don’t transpire

  5. Plant’s Adaptations • Mosses and lichens thrive here because of the high rainfall • Plants near ground grow/reproduce quickly

  6. Animal’s Adaptations • Home to the only internally fertilizing frog • Hibernate

  7. Animal’s Adaptations • Modified animal sizes • Denser fur • More fat/ most during growing season • Hiding spots/shelter • Migrate

  8. Human Impact • Major • Clear cutting • Minor • Agriculture • Development
