Average rainfall in the coniferous forest?

The average rainfall in a coniferous forest typically ranges from 30 to 60 inches per year. This consistent moisture level helps sustain the growth of coniferous trees, which are adapted to thrive in these conditions. Variations in rainfall can impact the overall health of the forest ecosystem.
