The pine tree is a great example of a conifer. The floor of a conifer forest should be littered with needles.
The tropical rainforest biome is characterized by a warm and humid climate and contains the world's largest area of biodiversity. This biome is home to a wide variety of plant and animal species due to its consistent temperature and abundant rainfall throughout the year.

Much of Siberia's conifer forests can be classified as a boreal forest ecosystem. These ecosystems are characterized by cold temperatures, short growing seasons, and dominated by coniferous trees like spruce, pine, and fir. It is the largest forested biome on Earth and plays a vital role in global carbon storage.
Yes! Exactly

tropical rainforests
A coniferous forest is composed of conifer tree species (the word conifer means cone bearing). Pine trees are an example of a conifer tree. Typically coniferous forest are evergreen forest because most conifers are evergreen tree species (they do not lose their leaves in the fall, which means the trees stay green year round). The Society of American Foresters defines a rainforest as "an evergreen forest associated with a climate characterized by continual high humidity and abundant rainfall (>60 in or > 1524 mm per year) and a short or no dry season" (Helms, 1998). Therefore, a rainforest may be a coniferous forest. A coniferous rainforest would typically be known as a temperate rainforest (such as those of the Pacific Northwest to Alaska). Tropical rainforest remain green year round due to the warm climate rather than the species of tree present. These rainforest tend to have broad leaf trees rather than conifer species.

North America is home to the Earth's largest coniferous forest, known as the Boreal Forest or Taiga. It stretches across Canada, Alaska, Scandinavia, and Russia, and is characterized by cold temperatures and dominated by coniferous trees like spruce, fir, and pine.
The lumber supply in a forest is abundant.
