Boreal Forest By. Dajour Davis and Josh Price

Introduction The boreal forest is found in a nearly continuous belt across North America and Eurasia

Location North America and Eurasia Most of Canada and Russia are covered by coniferous trees that make up this biome

Soil Type The soils are generally strongly acid and the main soil process under this dominantly leaching climate is ‘podsolization’ leading to podsolic soils

Climate/Seasons The climate is cold, with average annual temperatures from about +5 to -5 degrees Celsius The winters are long and the summer is very short The summers only last less than 3 months

5 Interesting Facts There is little rainfall The coldest temperature recorded was -65 degrees Fahrenheit It inhabits millions of insects Many animals have to hibernate or move north when its cold For six months out of the year, the temperature is below freezing

Biotic Factors Wild Life: Moose Reindeer/Caribou Beaver Hare Vole Black Bear Grizzly Bear Wolverine Owl Eagle Fox Wolf

Human Impact Logging Mining Hydro Electric Development Oil and gas projects
