Would you need an umbrella when you go to the tropical rainforest?

Yes, bringing an umbrella is a good idea when visiting a tropical rainforest, as these regions can experience sudden and heavy rainfall. An umbrella can help protect you from getting wet and make your experience more comfortable.


Good websites about the rain forest that i can use for a school project?

Some good websites for information about the rainforest for a school project include National Geographic's Rainforest section, Rainforest Alliance, and World Wildlife Fund's rainforest page. These websites provide a wealth of information on the importance of rainforests, conservation efforts, and wildlife within the rainforest ecosystem.


What is the climate of a rainforest biome?

There are two types of rainforests, Tropical rainforests and Temperate rainforests. Thus rainforests may be found in many places on Earth and the conditions in them is determined by the climatic zone in which they occur (hot in the tropics, cool in the temperate zones/elevations). The one thing they have in common is high (daily) rain and high humidity!


What is the quality of soil in the tropical rainforest?

Soil quality includes several parameters, but it is likely that you are asking about the fertility of tropical rainforest soils, because many other aspects of soil quality are unrelated to the soil's position on the globe.Soil fertility in tropical rainforest soils is low. This is because of the warm climate and the availability of water, both of which increase microbial activity, chemical reaction times, and the leaching of soluble soil constituents.The warm, moist environment causes the rapid breakdown of minerals and additions of organic matter (dead leaves and other plant parts, etc.) and then the removal of these breakdown products by living plants and rainwater. Plant nutrients are often locked up as part of soil minerals and soil organic matter. The rainforest environment decomposes these more complex, insoluble substances, and the rapidly growing plants of the rainforest take these nutrients up. Any nutrients not taken up by the plants are then easily washed out of the soil (this is called leaching of nutrients).The nutrients in a rainforest ecosystem are contained within the plants, rather than the soils. If the plants are harvested and removed, the nutrients go with them.


What are 8 major biomes on earth?

The names of the major biomes are desert, tundra, tropical rain forest, deciduous forest, taiga, grassland, marine,freshwater, coniferous forest and saltwater There are other biomes too such as: temperate rainforest (a rainforest that is outside of tropical latitudes) savannah (hot, dry grassland) prairie (a temperate grassland) For more on sub-biomes and biome information go to: http://www.nature.com/scitable/knowledge/library/terrestrial-biomes-13236757 and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Vegetation-no-legend.PNG http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Ocean_drainage.png My favorite classification of biomes is by using the WWF system. Type in "WWF biomes" in your search engine. also wikipedia has great info on biomes and so does http://worldwildlife.org/biomes
