Forests

Animals that live in the canopy of a forest include monkeys, sloths, birds like toucans and parrots, and tree frogs. Plants found in the canopy are epiphytes like orchids and bromeliads, along with tree species like mahogany and kapok.

Well, as of personal experience, I at one point in my life lived in a tropical rainforest. For 7 months I lived in the Daintree Rainforest in Queensland Australia. It was a spectacular point in my life. I shared a small hut with my pet kangroo, named Jack. So, to answer your question, yes, people do live in tropical rainforests.

It is difficult to determine the exact number of man-made watersheds as they can vary in size and complexity. However, many reservoirs or dams have created artificial watersheds by altering the natural flow of rivers and streams. These man-made watersheds are designed to manage water resources for various purposes such as agriculture, drinking water supply, and flood control.

Westmorland, California is located in the desert region of the state and does not have any forests within its immediate vicinity. The landscape is predominantly arid and characterized by desert vegetation.

It requires 22 trees to produce the amount of oxygen consumed by one person. (An acre of trees produces enough oxygen for 18 people). This data comes from the Northwest Territories Forest Management site.

Approximately 2 Moles per second

Not all trees produce the same amount of oxygen in the same amount of time.

'Evergreen' trees for example generally produce less oxygen per hour than their leafy cousins per time interval generally, however they do continue producing oxygen when their leafy cousins lose their leaves in the autumn, and to a point even well into the cold of winter in many areas.

The more green there is to a tree, in general, the more oxygen it will produce. The specific species of tree is important to consider, as well as the age, size and health of the tree.

A healthy 4 year old apple tree will produce more oxygen per day of summer sun than a dozen 4 year old trimmed 'bonsai' trees, simply because the 4 year old apple tree has a much greater volume of chlorophyll laden leaves (and large leaves) than the bonsai trees do.

The amount of oxygen produced is dependent on the amount of chlorophyll involved in the photosynthesis process. Although there is also the consideration of how much oxygen does the tree consume as well. (Plants do both, consuming oxygen and producing carbon dioxide, and consuming carbon dioxide and producing oxygen.

I presume you are asking about the NET oxygen production of the tree (which is the oxygen it produces minus the oxygen it uses.

In order to know this, however, we would have to account for how much of the time it is receiving enough sunlight to achieve photosynthesis and how much oxygen it is producing during that time, less the amount of oxygen it is using during the entire day (and night)

At night trees and other plants produce very little if any oxygen, but they continue cellular respiration (use of oxygen) at a lower rate.

Some threats to the boreal shield are Insects and diseases - essential ecological influences: Together, fire, forest tent caterpillar, lodge pole pine dwarf mistletoe, spruce budworm, and jack pine budworm, typically affect millions of hectares of forests each year in this Ecozone. Although they cause tree mortality, and reduction in growth amounts to tens of millions of cubic meters of wood annually, these agents of change are essential to the ecological well-being of these forests. However, volume losses due to these disturbances, which exceed volumes harvested, have implications for the available timber supply in the region. Disturbances may become more frequent, persistent, and severe if predictions of global climate change are realized. Insects and fungi are capable of adapting quickly to a changing environment because of their genetic makeup and short generation times, but trees are much slower to adapt .This difference in adaptive abilities would lead to an increased risk of insect and fungal infestation with a changing climate. Fragmentation of the aspen forest: Northward expansion of agriculture over the last 100 years has resulted in the loss of much of the most productive aspen forests in the southern portion of this ecozone. A belt of land ranging in width from a few to over 100 km has been converted from trembling aspen and mixedwood forests to agricultural land. This deforestation has resulted in fragmented forests that are in poor condition and prone to degradation. One such decline, caused by drought, occurred in trembling aspen stands in the 1960s (Zoltai et al. 1991). In the early 1990s, aspen decline again became prevalent as a result of forest tent caterpillar defoliation and drought. In contrast, trembling aspen stands in the continuous boreal forest portion of this ecozone have not been affected to the same degree by similar climatic conditions. This fact suggests that the fragmented aspen forests of the southern Boreal Plains ecozone are more predisposed to natural stressors. Roland (1993) states that large-scale forest fragmentation increases the duration of outbreaks of forest tent caterpillar. In addition, remnant forests, wetlands, and other `unimproved lands' within the agricultural belt of this ecozone are being converted to croplands or `improved' pasture lands. Increasing numbers of livestock are also being pastured within the remnant forests. Finally, many of the remaining wooded areas are being cleared. All these agricultural activities have tremendous net adverse health implications for large portions of the remaining aspen-dominated forest ecosystems.

Brazil has the most rainforests in the world, with the Amazon Rainforest being the largest tropical rainforest on the planet. The Amazon Rainforest spans across multiple countries in South America, but the majority of it is located within Brazil.

Probably longer than you can. So don't test it. Some bears can run (on all four legs) nearly as fast as a horse - but not as long, obviously. They may appear slow and ungainly, but if you've ever seen one actually take off after something, you'd be amazed.

Trees in the deciduous forest include oaks, maples, beeches, and birches. These trees shed their leaves in the fall and regrow them in the spring. They provide habitat and food for various animals, and their leaves contribute to the forest floor's nutrient cycle when they decompose.

The average rainfall in a coniferous forest typically ranges from 30 to 60 inches per year. This consistent moisture level helps sustain the growth of coniferous trees, which are adapted to thrive in these conditions. Variations in rainfall can impact the overall health of the forest ecosystem.

It is necessary to incorporate forest soil along with a forest tree because a forest tree is already adapted to the forest soil. This soil is rich with nutrients which a tree really needs. These nutrients are needed by the forest tree in order to survive regardless of the change in location.

Forests form over long periods of time as tree species gradually colonize a region, creating a complex ecosystem with various layers of plant and animal life. Forests can develop naturally through processes like succession on previously cleared land or through intentional planting by humans. They are important for biodiversity, carbon sequestration, and providing habitat for wildlife.

Rabbit, fox, squirrel, chipmunk, raccoon, opossum...

Theres also birds, mice, voles, shrews, weasels, minks, skunks, frogs, owls, bats, snakes, moles, pine marten, and pygmy marmot. I cant think of any more than that though.

The temperate deciduous forest is a forest in the temperate zone of the world . It contains over 66 percent of the worlds species. You can find out more about and what the temperate deciduous forest on wiki.answers.com it is simply only a click away! LOL!!

No, there are many other ecosystems, including tropical rainforests, coral reefs, wetlands, and mangrove forests. Each ecosystem has its own unique characteristics, biodiversity, and interactions between living organisms and their environment.

They don't really have a culture in a deciduous forest. A few houses scattered here and there, maybe, but no real culture. If there was a culutre, there would be no more forest because to build houses, you need land, and the trees take up most of that land. Therefor, there is no "culture" in a forest. Around the outside of a forest, however, you can say there is a culture, but not in it because that's the way humans are. We cut down trees to make a living.

Bracken is a type of fern plant that is commonly found in wooded areas and open fields. It is characterized by its large, triangular fronds and has a reputation for being an invasive species in some regions.

Ebony wood is often considered one of the darkest woods due to its deep black color and rich grain pattern. It is known for its durability and use in high-quality furniture and decorative items. Additionally, Blackwood, a type of African hardwood, is known for its dark appearance and is also used in various woodworking projects.

We should protect green forests because they are essential for biodiversity, provide a habitat for many species, help combat climate change by absorbing carbon dioxide, and support local communities by providing resources and ecosystem services. Protecting forests is important for maintaining a healthy planet for current and future generations.

White-tailed deer are one of the most dominant animals in the temperate deciduous forest, as they are herbivores that play a significant role in shaping plant communities. They are abundant and widely distributed across this ecosystem, impacting plant growth and biodiversity.

The largest tree in the world is found in the United States. You can find it in California. This giant sequoia tree is 275 feet tall and 95 feet around.

The largest forest in the world covers parts of Scandinavia and northern Russia. It has over 3.5 million square miles of land covered in trees!

Most hardwood trees are used for firewood, construction, or art. Lots of forests are being cut down for farm land.

Tuition for undergraduates at Wake Forest University is approximately $55,000 per academic year. This cost does not include additional fees, housing, meals, books, or personal expenses. Financial aid and scholarships may be available to help offset the overall cost.

Smokey Bear, a bear dressed as a forest ranger, became a famous symbol for wildfire prevention in the United States. Created in 1944, Smokey Bear's motto is "Only you can prevent wildfires."

Temperate rain forests are usually coastal and have cooler summers and milder winters than Tropical rain forests.

Also Temperate rain forests have summer fogs that keep it moist.

temperate rain forests also have lots of moss and consists of Deciduous trees.
