Lichens are bio -indicators as the clear respond to changes in their environment . Areas that suffer from extreme air pollution will have no lichen as it cannot grow under those conditions.

Lichen grow in a shape that is low, minimizing cold wind and remaining buried under insulating snow. They also minimize activity, going into a dormant state and relying on energy they have stored.
Lichen does not have the ability to move on its own. It grows on surfaces like rocks, trees, and soil. It may appear to spread slowly over time as it continues to grow and expand on its substrate.
