What is a Biome? A large region characterized by specific climate as well as plant and animal communities Named for plant species Plants determined by climate Plants determine animal species

Biomes Tropical Rainforest Temperate Rainforest Temperate Deciduous Desert Taiga Tundra Arctic Prairie Estuary Wetland River Lakes and Ponds Coral Reef

Climate Temperature Precipitation Sunlight Wind Humidity Organisms adapted to live in narrow temp range Growing season Precipitation Size and diversity of species Sunlight Length of day Wind Humidity

Latitude and Altitude The higher you go in latitude and altitude the colder the climate. Smaller vegetation Lower biodiversity
