Grasslands

L'Anse aux Meadows was discovered in 1960 by Helge and Anne Stine Ingstad. They were Norwegian explorers who were searching for evidence of Viking presence in North America. The site was excavated and confirmed as a Norse settlement from around the year 1000, making it the only known Viking site in North America.

Like most other plants, besides a few. Plants such as grass need the soil for nutrition and as a way to bring in water it also helps the plant grow in size. Its the same way as why do humans need to eat vitamins to grow bigger and healthier.

savanna

The tropical climate with vast grasslands is found in the savanna biome. This biome typically has warm temperatures year-round with distinct wet and dry seasons, making it ideal for grassland vegetation to thrive. Savannas are usually located near the equator in regions such as Africa, South America, and Australia.

You can say "meadow" in French by using the word "prairie."

The south region is called "south" because it is the direction opposite to north when using a cardinal direction system. In terms of geography and navigation, "south" is used to indicate the direction towards the Earth's South Pole.

Grasslands are good for growing crops like wheat, barley, oats, and alfalfa. They also provide suitable conditions for grazing livestock such as cattle, sheep, and horses.

The average rainfall on a prairie can vary greatly depending on the specific location, but it is typically between 20-35 inches per year. Precipitation patterns can also fluctuate due to factors like seasonal changes and climate variability.

Llamas are adapted to live in grasslands because they are herbivores that primarily feed on grasses and other vegetation. Grasslands provide an ideal habitat for llamas to graze, as they offer a steady supply of food and open spaces for them to roam and escape predators. Additionally, the open terrain of grasslands allows llamas to use their keen eyesight to detect potential threats.

Yes, there are some grasslands in the Middle East, particularly in regions like the Iranian Plateau and the Anatolian Plateau. These grasslands support diverse plant and animal species adapted to this environment, despite the arid conditions prevalent in the region.

No , Leas is the plural form of *lea which also means meadow . (Lease is a type of contract.)

*"A grassland; a meadow."

we have hurt them and helped them by building buildings where the grassland used to be, and heped them by cutting them and planting food in them

Prairies are mainly found in the central part of North America due to the specific climate and soil conditions that support their grassland ecosystem. The Southeast and Southwest US have different environmental factors such as higher humidity levels in the Southeast and more arid conditions in the Southwest, which are not conducive to the formation of prairies.

Temperate grasslands are a division of a larger biome grouping of grasslands that includes tropical savannas. There is an average of 20 â?? 35 inches of rainfall a year in the temperate grasslands.

Greater Prairie-Chickens are not threatened by severe winter weather. When the snow is thick they "dive" in to the snow to keep warm. A greater threat to the prairie-chickens comes in the from of spring rains. These sometimes drenching rains can wreak havoc on their chicks. Another major natural threat is drought. A drought can destroy food and make it difficult for the chicks.

Human interactions are by far the greatest threat. The conversion of native prairie to cropland is very detrimental to these birds. It was found in a radio telemetry study conducted by Kansas State University that "most prairie-chicken hens avoided nesting or rearing their broods within a quarter-mile of power lines and within a third-mile of improved roads." (Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks) It was also found that the prairie-chickens avoided communication towers and rural farms.

Tropical grasslands, also known as savannas, are characterized by grasses and scattered trees. They are found in regions with a seasonal climate, typically with a wet summer season and a dry winter season. These ecosystems support a diverse array of wildlife adapted to the grassy and open landscape.

"Vly" is a 3-letter word that refers to a northern meadow.

Savanna. This biome is characterized by grasses and scattered trees, and is home to a variety of wildlife such as elephants, lions, and zebras.

Yes, there are mineral and oil deposits in some temperate grasslands. For example, the Great Plains region in North America has oil and natural gas reserves, while the Pampas in South America have deposits of minerals like lithium and copper. Mining and oil drilling activities are conducted in these grassland areas.

Aster plants in temperate grasslands adapt to their climate by having deep root systems to access water and nutrients in the dry and nutrient-poor soil. They also have small leaves to minimize water loss through transpiration and can tolerate drought conditions. Additionally, their ability to grow in clumps helps protect them from grazing animals.

Yes, grasslands can have rivers running through them. Rivers are important water sources that sustain plant and animal life in grassland ecosystems. The presence of rivers can also influence the distribution of different plant and animal species within grasslands.

biodiversity

Meadows typically have a temperate climate with moderate temperatures and precipitation. They can experience all four seasons, including cold winters and warm summers. Meadows are usually found in areas with enough rainfall to support the growth of grasses and wildflowers.

Settles came and farms were made. New plants and animals were brought in. Most of the bison were killed. Some animals moved to other areas.
