Data booklet page 6 Permanent Ice Tundra Boreal Forest Temperate Deciduous Forest Temperate Rainforest Grassland Tropical Rainforest Desert

1. Permanent Ice Annual precipitation is less than 50 cm. Temperature ranges from -80 to -30 in the summer

2. Tundra Precipitation is less than 25 cm a year. Summer ranges from 3 to 12 degree. Winter temperature range from -20 to -30 degrees. Contains a layer of frozen soil called permafrost. When it melts in the summer, it creates pools. Very few trees

3. Boreal Forest Located in Russia and Finland, 30-80cm of precipitation, temperature are below freezing half the year. Big Coniferous (cone producing) trees flourish in this biome

4. Temperate Deciduous Forest Eastern forest in Canada (NOT HERE). Annual precipitation is 75 cm to 180cm. Temperature range from -30 degrees to 30 degrees in the summer

5. Temperate Rainforest We live here! Rainfall exceeds 200 cm a year. Temperature range from 5 degrees to 25 degrees in summer. Lots of Douglas Fir trees, lichen and moss.

6.Grassland They are mostly flat lands and the soil is rich and fertile, with very sparse trees because of the lack of rainfall

7. Desert

8. Tropical Rainforest Rainfall is about 250 cm a year. Temperature is degrees year round. The soil is poor in nutrient but it is recycled very quickly before rain can wash it away.
