Is this your favourite biome? If so, let me know, and why this is so!

[@2.0-f2p]

NO

[@notathing3942]

Yes, it is. Forests are so beautiful and so important for the environment. They are home to some of my favourite animals, grey wolves (Canis lupus), eurasian brown bears (Ursus arctos arctos), red deer (Cervus elaphus), Eurasian kingfishers (Alcedo atthis), etc.

[@anotherpersonontheweb5558]

Yes. I live in the Pacific Northwest, and I love the rainforest here. The forest floor is beautiful with moss all over the ground and in the trees. I love walking through the forest and being surrounded by the tall evergreen trees. Thats why I love the temperate forest so much

I live in the tropics, in the eternal summer. I have a great admiration for the deciduous trees, I haven't had the fortune of experience a true autumn into a deciduous forest, but the pictures I've saw of deciduous trees during the fall foliage peak are so spectacular. The deciduous trees in the tropics don't experience that change in color in that way. Thanks so much for bring us so special, beautiful, artistic and well-prepared work. (as always!!)

[@arcturus9366]

I live in central FL and autumn peaks are usually really late into the season (december and afterwards) for the temperature to allow it, and even then we have too manu evergreen subtropical wildlife for it to even react during this time. Mostly the live oak trees here just slowly lose leaves over the course of a couple of weeks and then regrow it a week later. But that's what happens when it's not a desert and you live only 28 degrees north of the equator.

The oak is one of the symbols of Germany and it’s very cool to have a lot of them around here. Especially the big and old ones are truly fascinating. They give me the feeling, that nothing can destroy them (except of the good old chainsaw).

Seattle area does have a very rainforest type feel even though only the Olympic peninsula is. The continuous light rain which can go without much of a break for hours, days and even weeks has lead to some social phenomena for example locals never use an umbrella and will point out the tourists or new residents by the use of an umbrella, another most serious impact although less common in Vancouver BC or Portland is called the "Seattle Freeze" where people spend so much time indoors that they become socially disconnected and difficult to make intermate friendships with , although the internet has eased somewhat but as a result Seattle has the highest percent of people who read books in the USA and perhaps one of the highest in the world which may have lead to the highest level of educated population... Funny how something as simple as rain style may have lead to such a deep social impact. In addition due to the rainfall and heavy tree coverage will lead the the roof of your house, anything you leave outdoors, sidewalks and your car will be impacted by moss growth if left without use for as little as a few weeks mostly in Spring time.

[@Geodiode]

Probably the most insightful comment on this thread. And that's pretty hilarious about the umbrellas. Thank you for sharing that! Did you check out my earlier special video on the PNW climate? They say the Scots developed a disproportionate amount of the world's inventions because the weather is so awful there, they would just stay in their shed/workshop and come up with something brilliant mentally, instead of just going to the beach....

Nice video. I’m from Uruguay and lot of that trees are now planted in the region. Our original biome is grassland but now you can see eucalyptus, pine, oak, poplar, cypress, ash and plane trees everywhere. I think this is possible due to the climatic similarities, but it seems that nature didn’t want to give us forests.

[@tjohnson2139]

After getting a good look at this video, I can someone what see a difference between these forests and the tropical ones. After watching both videos side by side, my only observation is that the tropical trees tend to look more skinnier, more crooked and and branch out more crazy like, with some trees much taller than others. While the temperate trees are more strait and uniform with every tree at about the same height where as the tropics, the trees are at different heights. Now of course some temperate forests like Australia have that crazy branch like look. Great video none the less!!

[@tjohnson2139]

GeoDiode I’m afraid you are right lol. I wish tropical trees had a more dramatic branching, it’s disappointing to see that there isn’t a noticeable difference. You would think they would look different due to there climates lol.

Breaks me heart how many trees are burned down everyday especially now in California, Amazon , Australia, Congo etc 😢🌲🌳🌴

[@lrn_news9171]

Acreage burned has decreased drastically the last few decades and forest cover in temperate regions have expanded

[@lrn_news9171]

In other words, it's not true that forest fires are more common today compared to the past, it's only propaganda. You can literally search the data on google and find that fires have actually decreased the past 50-100 years and there's a small increase lately but within the averages

[@lrn_news9171]

Tropical forests however are getting smaller but temperate forests are expanding

[@arcturus9366]

I agree, it's harder to replace old growth tropical forests, which when cut down, lose their ability to transpire water vapor, in tropical regions with a defined wet/dry season this can be bad as forests shrink and even after they are cut down it will take a very long time for the remaining forest to spread back, or might just continue declining depending on the size of the forest. Temperate forests on the other hand can spread north and south if Earth gets warmer, rainfall hardly changes and might even intensify, and the trees that grow in temperate regions do not take long to spread at all.

Hydro primarily means wetness or is related to water, rather than coldness. The prefix “hydro-” comes from the Greek word hydor, meaning water, and it is commonly used in various contexts involving water and fluids. Biomes Associated with Hydro: Several biomes are characterized by their high moisture content or association with water: 1. Aquatic Biomes: • Freshwater Biomes: Includes lakes, rivers, ponds, and wetlands. These areas are rich in biodiversity and are characterized by low salt concentration. • Marine Biomes: Includes oceans, coral reefs, and estuaries. These biomes have higher salt concentrations and support diverse ecosystems. 2. Wetlands: • Swamps: Wetlands dominated by woody plants. • Marshes: Wetlands dominated by herbaceous plants. • Bogs and Fens: Wetlands that accumulate peat and have specific plant communities. 3. Tropical Rainforests: • Characterized by high rainfall and humidity, tropical rainforests have a rich diversity of plant and animal life. 4. Temperate Rainforests: • Found in coastal areas, these biomes experience high levels of precipitation and have lush vegetation. 5. Floodplains: • Areas adjacent to rivers that are periodically inundated, providing rich habitats for various species. Conclusion: In summary, hydro relates to wetness rather than coldness, and it is associated with biomes that have abundant water, such as aquatic biomes, wetlands, and rainforests.

about Italy, there is a bit of incorrectness; it s not a country with a mass of shrub only saved by the tiny inland covered by temperate biome; infact it s quite the reverse: at least 2/3 of the surface of Italy is the natural Soil for temperate forests; i see shrub only on the limb of coasts from Liguria down South in the West Coast, and from the Gargano penisula in to the south in the East coast.. With just almost the entire region of Puglia and Sicily (adding the more flat lands of Sardinia) only covered with shrub Infact more than 2/3 of Italy receive at least 800mm/year of rain Italy is very green of tall standard temperate plants.. More so than the tiny more greish shrubs.. Because it rains a lot (more than in France and many Cfb European oceanic places.. also more than in England) by looking at mm/year of course 2/3 of Italy are Csa so we experience a dry Summer..

@@g.c.2916 yes, I think the key issue is that the Mediterranean climates (Csa/Csb/Dsa) are the only one where the dry season occurs during the hottest part of the year.

@@Geodiode I write on these subjects in Urdu, my language, for Urdu readers. It is a difficult task, as scientific terminology required is not always readily available in Urdu. But I plod on. I wrote a long rhymed and metered poem in Urdu nearly 20 years ago whose title translates as The Magic of Life, in which I had summarized the important environmental challenges facing the world now, and the importance of saving the Rain Forests of the world. I am trying to find someone who will help illustrate and embellish the pages of this book with hand drawings, and also some publisher who will publish it. Don't know where to turn for help. But thanks again for your excellent video which gave me so much new understanding.

You just did it with a comment ;) - thank you!

does anyone know why eucalyptus didn't make the leap to New Zealand and southern beech didn't jump to Australia ? a link to an academic source is fine.

Hi Geodiode, i'm a New Zealander and am wondering why the Waikato region of the North island and the east coast of the South island weren't highlighted as temperate forests? As far as I was aware, the islands are nearly all temperate forest aside from the central Otago region, which is steppe, and of course the mountains.

[@Geodiode]

Hi Max. I cannot comment directly since I have yet to visit your beautiful country, but the data that I have is that the areas you describe are a unique form of steppe (see my Grasslands episode). The reason is rain shadow in the South Island (the so-called "Canterbury effect"). Why it occurs on North Island, I'm not totally sure - poor soil?

Good video and explanation☺! But dont forget the temperates forest of Brasil mainly in the south and southwest and campo grande MS,in the south region exist forests that have the tree symbol of that region the araucária tree, platanum, maple,oak, and also cherry blossom. -And in the southwest and in Campo Grande ms mainly is more eucalyptus and bergamot trees, and blossom trees then other regions;

[@Geodiode]

Thanks Elizabeth. Yes this was an unfortunate omission. Which I made up for by mentioning them in my video about Brazil: kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZoO2oaGmop2Laqs

So much effort done for this episodes . This one is my favorite . Comparing central part of europe to eastern part of north america i see that eastern usa has so much more rainfall compared to europe unfortunetly , considering that future climate will get hotter is it possible for central europe to become a steppe :(?
