What are Biomes? A large region of the planet characterized by a specific climate and certain types of plants and animal communities. A large region of the planet characterized by a specific climate and certain types of plants and animal communities.

Carbon & Water Cycles

How Ecosystems Change Ecological Succession: gradual change and replacement of species in a community. Primary Succession: occurs on a surface where no ecosystem existed before. Secondary Succession: occurs where an ecosystem already existed (disrupted by humans, animals, storms)
