Selective tree cutting.

Negative:

Logging-too many trees being cut down

Pollution-pollution leads to acid rain which hurts trees

What is the geographic distribution of the temperate deciduous forest?

With its vast mountainous regions--high in the west and low in the east--China has a varied topography and diverse physical features.

Mountainous Topography

China has large areas of mountainous land, about two-thirds of the country. The ranges mainly run from east to west and from northeast to southwest.

The leaves of deciduous trees change color and fall off in the autumn and grow back in the spring

Tennessee is where it is

Why does rain attract forests?

Rain does not attract forests. On the other hand, scientists and analysts have contemplated the possibilities of forests attracting rainfall. There are studies that suggest deforestation often reduces the amount of rain and cloud formations in that region. That's because pressure gradients are also taken into account. Atmosphere volume reduces at much higher rates where intensive evaporation occurs. As a result, the low pressure draws in larger amounts of moist from areas with weaker evaporation. Consequently, this leads to a greater net transfer of atmospheric moisture. All of this is a part of what is deemed the Biotic Pump Theory.

How you can coserve the forest?

AnswerMost people are too busy with their own little lives to realize what is going on in the environment and eco system and it's important we look up information on the Internet to be aware of what we should fight for as far as clean air and keeping our forests and animal life safe and healthy. Nature is a delicate balance and everything has a use to keep that balance.

Because of poor air quality in many cities in the world there are more cases of asthma, allergies and much worse diseases. If we don't keep enough trees our air will never be clean because trees filter out the pollutants in the air. They provide shade from the sun and food for animals. If we don't protect one specie of animals or mammals then the whole chain of events is unleashed. Trees help in maintaining the co2 level of atmosphere as they observe co2 and give out oxygen.

Wildlife is an important thing in this world. It helps in maintaining the ecoligical balance,economical value and aesthetic or recreational value.

Wild animals are dependent on forests as their home. In the 20th century the conservation of forest was realized by 2 developments. We need to conserve forest for protecting the animals too. We need to increase the area of forest, we need to stop cutting of trees. Establish a wide corridor in reserved forest and energy use.

Thus by conserving forests we can able to protect wild animals.

How do forest help in conserving soil and preventing floods?

The forst also acts as a natural absorber and allows it to seep. When forests are flooded, the soil absorbs the water and hence forests help in controlling floods.
