Tundra biome The tundra biome is the coldest of all the forest regions. The region has a minimal amount of vegetation, with trees, in particular, being quite rare. The tundra biome also receives very little rainfall or precipitation, moulding the land with frost. ...

Tundra, a cold region of treeless level or rolling ground found mostly north of the Arctic Circle or above the timberline on mountains. Tundra is known for large stretches of bare ground and rock and for patchy mantles of low vegetation such as mosses, l
" which fits a broad description of the tundra biome. The tundra regions tend to range in a circuit from south of the Arctic ice caps. Tundra climates can be found in the high Arctic or at high elevations in mountains outside the Arctic. ...

How do changes in the Earth's orbit affect climate? What are the factors that affect climate? What are the factors that affect the weather? How are they different? How do eastern boundary currents affect climate? How does the ozone layer affect climate?
In the north of this region the forest becomes sparser as it shifts to a tundra ecosystem. In far eastern Siberia, the forests are dominated by Larch which is deciduous, and drops its needles in winter Temperate exist in many regions of the Earth, in eastern North America, northeastern ...
Habitat was generally a better predictor of CWMs than the combined fixed and habitat-specific effects of climate. In models that did not account for the habitat-specificity of climate-trait relationships (Cl+broad in Fig.2), community plant height was the trait best explained by broad habitats ...

Since its conception in the 1960’s, Paul Martin’s overkill hypothesis as an explanation for the extinction of most of North America’s Late Quaternary megafauna (animals with an average adult body mass of ≥44 kg) has spurred a considerable amount of research and debate1,2. Near the en...
