1. Oil and gas development-->global warming: only 6 months left of natural oil; permafrost melts and tundra ecosystems collapse: as permafrost begins to decay, (dead plants) release more carbon dioxide and accelerate global warming
2. Ozone depletion in North/South poles: stronger UV rays destroy tundra
3. Air pollution: poisons lichen, which feeds many animals
4. Buildings and roads: put heat on permafrost and cause it to melt
5. Invasive species: push aside native vegetation and reduce diversity of plant cover
6. Oil spills can kill wild life and significantly damage tundra ecosystems.
Hope this helps
problem .............................solution
strong cold wind ................all plants are low growing to gain protection from this
limited precipitation ...........most plants have small leaves to reduce transpiration
low temperatures ...............many plants are protected from the harsh winter by a ..........................................deep covering of snow
short growing season ........plants benefit from the long hours of daylight in ..........................................summer
permafrost .........................most plants have short roots to avoid the underlying ..........................................permanently frozen ground
Oil compines, hunting, global warming,and coldness that could kill plants,animals and other living things.
The concerns for the Tundra biomes are it is very cold and the brutally devastating cold weather can kill plant and animal life and any other life that lives there.
Dieseases from coldness, hypothermia, pneumonia, that stuff
Some ecological issues that are in the tundra are global warming, impact of oil and mineral extraction, pollutions and accumulations of toxins, and the impact of tourism...
the problem is you
Global warming
globel warmingg
i need the answer too so plz do mhe a favore and put the answer!! Thanks
One ecological service of the tundra is hunting. Another service is the mining of fossil fuels such as oil and natural gas.
sniff
according to my research ecological succession and biological succession of plant life is the two primary succession in tundra.
OMG TU MADRE ES HUEVOS!
There are a variety of ecological zones. These include the ecological zones called littoral, sublittoral, epipelagic, mesopelagic, bathypelagic as well as abyssal.
Ecological Concerns: # Uranium mining residue. # Copper mining runoff contamination, # Fertelizer runoff contamination of the water supply from nitrates. # City heat build up from air conditioning units. # With such a small amount of rainfall there is never enough water available.
abiotic things in a tundra are all NON-LIVING organisms
"Princess Mononoke" has this scene as well as other ecological concerns ; see related link below .
Because it produces a lot of our air and medicines and people are cutting it down too much.
