Best Answer

Temperate grasslands, found on almost all continents (prairies of North America, all across Europe, most of Australia, and parts of South America) are important due to their availability as agricultural land. High amounts of organic material and nutrients make cultivation of crops ideal. Because of this and human demand, very little natural temperate grassland remains.

This biome is found all over the world, so temperatures will vary depending of the latitude. Some grasslands, such as in Russia, are defined as "steppes", in which the climate can support grasslands, but is dry enough to prevent the growth of forests.

Large grazing animals, such as bison, prevent woody shrubs and trees. An important natural disturbance is fire-- which reduces detritus (serves as fuel), and only a short time later, fire-adapted plants rebound so the biomass is almost entirely composed of living organic material. The grasslands are, of course, mostly make up of perennial grasses, whose growth buds are fire, drought, and/or cold adapted.
