Most of the trees there are hardwoods like, oak, poplar, maple, and elms, these trees all have wide leaves, unlike conifers like pines, spruce, cedars and junipers, which are called also evergreens.
The terms Coniferous and Deciduous refer to two different types of trees. Deciduous trees have broad leaves, which they shed every year. For example, Oak, Birch and Maple. Conifers have much smaller, needle or scale like foliage. For example, Pine, Cedar and Spruce. Sometimes forests are classified according to the type of tree they contain the most of. For example if you were to go out into a forest that contained mostly oak trees, with the odd poplar you'd be correct in assuming you were in a deciduous forest.
Tropical evergreen forests and tropical rainforests are similar in that they both have high levels of rainfall and are located in tropical regions. However, tropical rainforests have a higher biodiversity and a well-developed canopy, while tropical evergreen forests have a continuous canopy of broad-leaved evergreen trees.
They adapt to the deciduous forest by shedding their leaves in the fall and they regrow them in the spring to avoid being killed by drying and freezing temperatures. Thus they survive through the winters. They also shed their leaves so they do not lose water rapidly.~Unknown Tree Examiner
A Deciduous tree
In general, coniferous trees tend to grow slower than deciduous trees. Coniferous trees typically have a slower growth rate due to their needle-like leaves, which have a smaller surface area for photosynthesis compared to the broad leaves of deciduous trees.
Deciduous forests contain mostly trees that shed their leaves annually in response to seasonal changes. These trees typically have broad leaves and include species such as oak, maple, beech, and birch. Deciduous forests are known for their diverse plant and animal life.
tend to contain more broad leaf evergreen trees
No, Hawaii does not have deciduous broadleaf forests. The forests in Hawaii are primarily dominated by evergreen trees, such as native koa and ohia trees, as well as introduced species like eucalyptus and monkeypod.
Broad leaf trees drop their leaves in Autumn and are known as deciduous.

deciduous trees :)
Most deciduous trees are angiosperms (flowering plants) and also called "broad leaf" trees, in comparison to the needles on conifers. There are, however, some deciduous conifers, such as the larch and tamarack.

The following are the major types of vegetation identified in our country: (a) Tropical Evergreen Forests or Tropical Rain Forest (b) Tropical Deciduous Forests or Tropical Monsoon vegetation (c) Tropical Thorn Forests and Scrubs (d) Mountain Forests or Himalayan Vegetation (e) Mangrove Forests (f) Semi-deciduous forests or grasslands / Desert Vegetation
There are two main types, evergreen and deciduous. Broad leafed is just another term for deciduous.
Yes, deciduous trees typically have broad leaves that are wide and flat. These leaves are shed annually in response to changing seasons, such as during autumn when the tree prepares for winter. Examples of deciduous trees with broad leaves include maple, oak, and beech trees.
Yes a maple is a broad leaf tree and is deciduous.
