Climate
During the day the temperature may reach 50°C, when at night it may fall to below 0°C. Deserts have less than 250 mm of rainfall per year. The rain can be unreliable. Most deserts are found between 20° and 35° north and south of the equator. The Sahara is the largest desert, covering 9 million km2.

Landscape
A desert is a barren area of landscape where little precipitation occurs and consequently living conditions are hostile for plant and animal life. The lack of vegetation exposes the unprotected surface of the ground to the processes of denudation. About one third of the land surface of the world is arid or semiarid.]]> 2018-02-07 22:40:34 UTC https://padlet.com/306565/qr5s1o3mvyq4/wish/229361747 306565 https://padlet.com/306565/qr5s1o3mvyq4/wish/229425364 Animals

Climate  
The average temperature in tropical rainforests ranges from 70 to 85°F (21 to 30°C). The environment is pretty wet in tropical rainforests, maintaining a high humidity of 77% to 88% year-round. The yearly rainfall ranges from 80 to 400 inches (200 to 1000 cm), and it can rain hard.

Landscape 
The tropical rainforest is a biome with a constant temperature and a high rainfall. The level of humidity and density of the vegetation give the ecosystem a unique water and nutrient cycle. Rainforests around the world are threatened by human expansion.]]> 2018-02-08 05:31:23 UTC https://padlet.com/306565/qr5s1o3mvyq4/wish/229425364 306565 https://padlet.com/306565/qr5s1o3mvyq4/wish/229850697 Animals

Climate 
The average temperature of the forest is about 50 degrees F. The average amount of rainfall in the forest is 30 to 60 inches a year. As the seasons change, so do the colors of the leaves of the deciduous. During the winter months water is generally not available to keep the leaves of some plants alive.

Landscape 
Temperate deciduous forests have a great variety of plant species. Most have three levels of plants. Lichen, moss, ferns, wildflowers and other small plants can be found on the forest floor. Shrubs fill in the middle level and hardwood trees like maple, oak, birch, magnolia, sweet gum and beech make up the third level.]]> 2018-02-08 22:35:47 UTC https://padlet.com/306565/qr5s1o3mvyq4/wish/229850697 306565 https://padlet.com/306565/qr5s1o3mvyq4/wish/229852796 Animals

climate 
The taiga is the terrestrial biome with the lowest annual average temperatures after the tundra and permanent ice caps.The taiga or boreal forest has a subarctic climate with very large temperature range between seasons, but the long and cold winter is the dominant feature.

Landscape 
The taiga is a forest of the cold, subarctic region. The subarctic is an area of the Northern Hemisphere that lies just south of the Arctic Circle. The taiga lies between the tundra to the north and temperate forests to the south.]]> 2018-02-08 22:45:18 UTC https://padlet.com/306565/qr5s1o3mvyq4/wish/229852796 306565 https://padlet.com/306565/qr5s1o3mvyq4/wish/229854709 Animals

Climate 
Temperate grasslands have hot summers and cold winters. Summer temperatures can be well over 100 degrees Fahrenheit, while winter temperatures can be as low as -40 degrees Fahrenheit. They typically have between 10 and 35 inches of precipitation a year, much of it occurring in the late spring and early summer.

landscape 
Temperate grasslands are characterized as having grasses as the dominant vegetation. Trees and large shrubs are absent. Temperatures vary more from summer to winter, and the amount of rainfall is less in temperate grasslands than in savannas. Rainfall is moderate.]]> 2018-02-08 22:55:57 UTC https://padlet.com/306565/qr5s1o3mvyq4/wish/229854709 306565 https://padlet.com/306565/qr5s1o3mvyq4/wish/229882637 Animals

Climate 
The climate of the chaparral biome is very hot and dry. Winters there tend to be very mild, with temperatures of about 50 °F. The winter climate is also known as the Mediterranean climate, which while not very rainy, is typically mild and moist.

landscape 
In its natural state, chaparral is characterized by infrequent fires, with intervals ranging between 10–15 years and over a hundred years. Mature chaparral stands that have survived for greater intervals between fires is characterized by nearly impenetrable, dense thickets except the more open chaparral of the desert.]]> 2018-02-09 02:25:50 UTC https://padlet.com/306565/qr5s1o3mvyq4/wish/229882637 306565 https://padlet.com/306565/qr5s1o3mvyq4/wish/230116637 Animals:

Climate
Tundras are among Earth's coldest, harshest biomes.Tundra ecosystems are treeless regions found in the Arctic and on the tops of mountains, where the climate is cold and windy and rainfall is scant. Tundra lands are snow-covered for much of the year, until summer brings a burst of wildflowers.

Landscape: 
The word “tundra” comes from a Lappish word meaning “treeless land” or “barren land”. Most of the tundra biome 3.3 million square miles is located in the Arctic region of the world, above the northernmost limit for tree growth. Even though the tundra landscape is defined by rhythmic freezing and thawing, it still supports an extensive array of wildlife and vegetation.

Climate:
Some common freshwater biomes include creeks, streams, rivers and lakes. The climate of these biomes can vary from as low as 2 degrees Celsius (35 degrees Fahrenheit) in the winter to 24 degrees Celsius (75 degrees Fahrenheit) in the summer.

Landscape:
Freshwater ecosystems are active components in the landscape that influence a number of ecological processes and provide invaluable ecosystem services. Freshwater connections that link lakes, wetlands, and streams to one another and the surrounding landscape are major structural components]]> 2018-02-09 21:19:36 UTC https://padlet.com/306565/qr5s1o3mvyq4/wish/230210266 306565 https://padlet.com/306565/qr5s1o3mvyq4/wish/230211727 Animals:

Climate:
The marine biome has a big influence on our terrestrial climate! Temperatures in the ocean range from just around freezing at the pole and in the deep waters, to tropical clear waters that are as warm as a bathtub. The average temperature of all oceans is about 39°F (4°C).

Landscape:
Marine ecosystems are among the largest of Earth's aquatic ecosystems. Examples include salt marshes, intertidal zones, estuaries, lagoons, mangroves, coral reefs, the deep sea, and the sea floor. ]]> 2018-02-09 21:25:21 UTC https://padlet.com/306565/qr5s1o3mvyq4/wish/230211727
