What is a northwestern coniferous forest?

Answer 1

• The average summer temperature is 10 degrees Celsius
• The coniferous forest has 300 to 900 millimeters of rain each year.
• Some of the trees in the coniferous forest are trees that produce cones and needles.
• Some needles remain on the trees all year.
• The coniferous forests have cold, long winters with snow, and warm hot, humid summers. Taiga is the Russian term for coniferous forest.
• The three most dominating plants are fir, pine, and spruce trees.
• The coniferous forest is probably the worlds largest land biome.
• Coniferous means cone bearing or coming from the cones.
• The white powder from the aspen tree can be used as a deodorant.
• The larch tree is resistant to fire.
• Giant sequoia trees are one of the longest living trees on earth. They are more than 3000 years old and still growing.
• The coniferous forest was named after the conifer tree that produces seeds and cones.
• The bobcat changes it's coat to camouflage itself according to the seasons.
• Most great horned owls are brown or white to blend into the trees.
• The eastern milk snake has a Y or V mark on it's neck and it got it's name from the belief it actually milked cows.
• The main source of food in the coniferous forest is the seeds produced by the conifer trees.

They have 4 seasons, short summers and long winters, there are lots of lightning storms in the summer, and it is the largest biome in the world. These are true.

Answer 2

The only northwest coniferous forest in the world (northern California, Oregon, Western Canada, and southwestern Alaska) deserves it's own biome because of it's abundance in vegetation and unique wildlife. Mild, moist air from the Pacific Ocean provides abundant rainfall to this biome. The forest is made up of a variety of conifers, ranging from giant redwoods along the coast of northern California to spruce, fir, and hemlock farther north. Moss cover tree trunks and the forest floors. Ferns are also common. The most common flowering plants are dogwood and rhododendron. The northwest coniferous forest is also called "temperate rainforest".

Abiotic Factors-- mild temperature, lots of precipitation during fall, winter, and spring. cool dry summer, rocky acidic soil.

Plants-- sitka spruce (Alaska's state tree), Douglas fir, western hemlock, redwood.

Wildlife-- bears, elk, deer, beavers<3, owls, bobcats, weasel family

Geographic Distribution-- Pacific coast of northwest United States and Canada, from northern Cali to Alaska.

Answer 3

Abiotic factors: mild temperatures; abundant precipitation during fall, winter, and spring; relatively cool, dry summer; and rocky, acidic soils.

and possums rule
In the summer 104 degrees Fahrenheit.

Answer 4

The northwestern coniferous in on the Pacific coast of northwestern United States and Canada, ranging from northern California to the AlaskaBoreal Forest. The northwestern coniferous forest is located in the north west of many countries. Bears and cyotes are very common in these areas. During the 17th century writing of "The Emporer's New Groove" by Shakespeare, a mutant gene of rabid llamas spread to the area and attacked the village. This village went on to invent a new weapon in order to keep the llamas at bay. This invention was a ground hammock that caught the llamas' hooves. This event became famous world round and went on to put coniferous forests in the global spotlight. On the subject, many plays were created that took place in the northwestern coniferous forests such as "Tickle Me Green"(B.A. Spears), "I've Been Working on the treetops"(M. Jackson), and "What I've Done"(Linkin Park). To find out where northwestern coniferouds forests are, you should go to any point on the equator, find the nearest coniferous tree, and go northwest. Also see the guinea pig article on "Guinea Pigs in the Forest."

Answer 5

The climate in northwestern coniferous forests varies somewhat from area to area. Northwest Washington has an area of temperate rainforest which is cool and very wet. Most northwest coniferous forests tend to have mild temperatures and moderate to heavy amounts of rain or snow.

Answer 6

1. The white powder from the aspen tree can be used as a deoderant.
2. The Larch Tree is resistant to fire.
3. The Eastern Milk Snake has a Y or V mark on its neck and got its name from the belief it actually milked cows.

Answer 7

main source of food in the coniferous forest are the seeds made by trees,

The coniferous forest is the worlds largest land biome

most of the worlds softwood timber(used for paper) comes from this biome.

there a thousands of small lakes and swampy areas

Some trees depend on fir as a catalyst for seed-release

clearcut logging is the biggest threat to the northwestern coniferous forest

there's bunnies!!!! :o)

Answer 9
