The Taiga biome, also known as Boreal Forest or Northern Coniferous Forest, is the largest land biome on Earth. Covering about 17% of the Earth's land area. The biome spans the Northern parts of North America, Europe and Asia.
Most boreal forests, also known as taiga, are located in the Northern Hemisphere, primarily across Canada, Alaska, Russia, and parts of Scandinavia. These forests thrive in regions characterized by long, cold winters and short, cool summers. Boreal forests are the world’s largest terrestrial biome, playing a crucial role in carbon storage and global climate regulation.
Boreal forest biomes are also called taigas. Taigas have long winters, short summers, and are found in areas of Canada and Russia.
Russia. Most of the world's boreal, or taiga, forest is in Canada and Russia.
The Boreal Shield stretches from Alberta to Newfoundland, as it is known as Canada's largest terrestrial ecozones. The bulk of the Boreal Shield stands in Quèbec and Ontario.
