rainforests (forests (plant communities), plant communities (natural), ... Built Environment (hierarchy name)) |
|
Note: Forests with varied vegetation, depending upon whether they are tropical or temperate, but having in common a high annual rainfall of between 98-180 inches. Tropical rainforests are found closer to the equator and temperate rainforests are found farther north near coastal areas. |

Additional Notes: |
|
German ..... Wald mit vielfältiger Vegetation, die davon abhängt, ob er tropischen oder gemäßigten Klimas ist; beiden ist aber ein hoher, jährlicher Niederschlag zwischen 2500-4600 mm gemeinsam. Die Zone des tropischen Regenwaldes liegt näher am Äquator, die Zone des gemäßigten Regenwaldes liegt nördlicher, nahe der Küste. |
