Some natural disasters that ocur often in rainforests are droughts, floods, and mudslides.
The droughts are caused by the extreme temperatures in the dry season when the sun is directly posistioned upon the equator where many rainforests are.
The floods occur mainly in the wet season when the highest average annual rainfall tends to just seem to never end.
The mudslides are caused when the floods push down soil, shrubs and other ground sediments and plants and cause a moderate to large spill out of a part of the land.

∙ 12y agoWeather is very humid and hot. It rains every hour of the day. My suggestion is to bring a umbrella.
In a temperate forest, there are four definite seasons. In some biomes, like the tundra, it is usually cold, but not in the temperate forest. Spring time brings new life to the trees and plants, warm temperatures, and rain which helps everything grow. Summer is hot, and everything is green for all the trees now have leaves. Fall is cool. The trees are beginning to change colors such as red, yellow, and bright orange. Winter months are extremely cold. All the trees loose their leaves.
The average temperature for a year in the temperate forest is about 50 degrees F.
The forests usually gets about 30 to 60 inches of every year.
