Daintree Cairns experiences high rainfall due to its tropical rainforest climate, influenced by the nearby Coral Sea. The region's geographical features, including the surrounding mountains, create conditions that trap moisture-laden air, leading to frequent and intense rainfall. Additionally, the area's proximity to the equator results in warm temperatures that enhance evaporation and precipitation. This combination of factors contributes to Daintree's lush, vibrant ecosystems.

What is the of second largest rain forest?

[1] The world's largest rain forest is the Amazon Basin. [2] Most sources identify the second largest as the Congo Basin rain forest. A minority opinion gives the title to the Daintree rain forest of Australia. But the sizes of the Amazon, Congo and Papua New Guinea rain forests run in the millions. And the figures for Daintree are in the thousands. So Daintree's claim to fame may be as Australia's largest rain forest, and as the world's oldest at 135 million years.
