  2. Scrub • Called “chaparral” in the text • Dry summers • Different specieson differentcontinents

  3. Why isn’t Pomona a grassland? x

  4. Tropical forest • Rain forest and dry forest • Daily range oftemperaturegreater thanyearly

  5. Coniferous forest • High latitudes in the northand south • Tree shapes • Evergreens and evergreens

  6. Temperate broadleaf forest • Why deciduous? • Tree shape

  7. Savannah and grassland

  8. Tundra • Arctic/AntarcticTundra • Alpine Tundra • What about the tropics?

  9. So what about biomes? • Determined by climate, physical factors • Plant adaptations control the shape of the vegetation • The vegetation is the foundation of food webs and ecological niches, and thus controls the animals…but…. • Animals can cause changes in vegetation

  10. Populations Population biology: Synthesis of population genetics and population ecology
