Tropical rain forests are rain forests generally found near the equator. They are common in Asia, Africa, South America, Central America, and on many of the Pacific Islands.

Within the World Wildlife Fund's biome classification scheme, tropical rain forests are considered a type of tropical wet forest (or tropical moist broad leaf forest) and may also be referred to as lowland equatorial evergreen rainforest's The tropical rain forests are home to more species than all other biomes combined. The leafy tops of tall trees-extending from 50 to 80 meters above the forest floor-forms an understory. Organic matter that falls to the forest floor quickly decomposes, and the nutrients are recycled.
