Threats to the Temperate Deciduous Forest

# data[].attributes.body
Acid rain is caused by industrial and car fumes. The rain damages the leaves and causes trees to produce a smaller amount of trees. Trees are also cut down to clear the land for farming and for use of the timber. Also, non-native plant and animal species compete for space and food, which is threatening to the native species.

These plants grow long petals when spring arrives. They start in spring so that they can get as much sunlight as they can before the taller trees grow their leaves and block the sun. Some of the food captured is stored and used until next spring comes. They also make a sugar solution to keep the cold winter from freezing their stems.

These trees shed their leaves once a year when a new season occurs. They have broad leaves so that they can get sunlight for photosynthesis. In the winter, they loose their leaves on purpose to conserve water.

Coyotes have a camouflage that allows it to blend in with their habitat and hide from predators. They dig burrows deep in the ground when winter comes to stay out of the cold weather. They also base their hunting on what food is available to them.

The raccoon has dirt colored fur that allows it to be camouflaged to  hide from predators. The raccoons eyes are high on the head, and has a flexible neck that allows the animal to rotate its head. This gives the raccoon better vision, which allows it to spot food and predators. They have a "thermoneutral" zone that can go to lower temperatures than humans.

The plants found in this biome are lichen, moss, ferns, shrubs, hardwood trees, spruce, fir, and pine trees. The animals in this biome are spiders, frogs, turtles, broad-winged hawks, cardinals, worms, white-tailed deer, raccoons, possums, porcupines, red foxes, and coyotes. These plants and animals have to adapt to the climate change and learn to survive.

This biome could be hilly or could be flat. Trees, shrubs, mosses, herbs, ferns, twigs, and plants cover the ground. There are many water sources, mountains, and soil. The insolation of the biome causes animals and the plants on the forest floor to migrate.

The Latitude of the Deciduous Forest is approximately 123 degrees S and 72 degrees N. The altitude ranges from 1000 ft to about 4000 ft. This biome gets lots of cold and warm air which is why the temperature is not consistent. Because they are found in middle latitudes, the forest's change with the climate of the seasons.

The graph shows accurate data of rainfall and temperature in all of the Deciduous Forest's. On average, the month of July has the highest amount of rainfall and temperature, while February has the lowest amount of rain. February, April, November, and December have the lowest temperatures out of the other months.

This biome experiences winter, spring, summer, and fall. The average temperature is 50 degrees farenheit. The average temperature during the summer is about 70 degrees farenheit and the temperature during the winter goes below freezing.

This is a biome that is always changing. It is characterized by trees that shed leaves in the fall. There is a great diversity of animal life and plants. They are also found in places with warm summers and cold winters.
