The pH of tundra soils typically ranges from 3.5 to 7.0, depending on various factors such as vegetation, organic matter, and moisture content. In many areas, especially where there is significant organic matter accumulation, the pH tends to be on the acidic side. The cold temperatures and short growing seasons limit microbial activity, which can also influence soil chemistry and pH levels.
all tundras ecosystem have similar features

yes a tundra can be near the equator but not all tundras are
One significant abiotic factor that differs between polar and alpine tundras is temperature. Polar tundras, found in regions like the Arctic, generally experience colder temperatures year-round due to their high latitude and proximity to ice caps. In contrast, alpine tundras, located at high elevations on mountains, can have more variable temperatures, with warmer summer conditions that can support a brief growing season. This difference in temperature influences the types of vegetation and animal life that can thrive in each environment.
No. The South Pole sits on more than 9,300 feet of ice. There is no botany there.
the tundras are located on different continents
Well, DESERTS are tundras depending where you are. There are arctic tundras that are not deserts, but tundra deserts that are hot as well.
The arcyic tundras are located at 17 degrees latitude in africa!
go to wikipedia
The tundras rare plant is called the Poyterion Stilky

manitoba is cold because it has many tundras near by! (tundras are freezing with ice floors!)

No
Everything...
yes
Yes, both deserts and tundras have low precipitation. However, they are two distinct biomes.
