The definition of climate, vegetation, and soil regions
These regions are defined by natural forces.
These 3 usually have the same boundaries.
The climatic conditions affect the types of vegetation that can grow there, and the soils the develop.
Soil regions have similar patterns to geologic, landforms, and climate regions.
Examples:
1.A polar region has a cold, dry climate -a cold desert.
It is a region that has little vegetation and very poor soil.
2.In a tropical region with continuous heat, high precipitation, and gentle slopes, thick soil forms rapidly.

What two things determine the type of vegetation in an area?
I believe it is the type of soil and the climate of the area.
How do climate and landforms affect the soils characteristics?
The soil that forms in a hot, wet climate is very different from the soil that develops in a cold, dry climate. Climate influences the characteristics of developing soil because the climate influences the weathering of the rock. The four soil types that develop in different climate regions are: tropical, desert, temperate, and arctic.

What is a vegitation region?
Vegetation regions are geographical areas characterized by distinct plant communities. A vegetation region is determined primarily by climate (temperature, precipitation, sunlight); it may be affected by factors such as geology, soil composition and erosion, water drainage patterns and human interference. Each vegetation region supports an animal community determined by the type of vegetation and which may affect its composition.
