2. Kelp, Seaweed, Seagrass,Red Algae,Coralline Algae, Coral and Algae,Green algae.
3.Marine biome experiences an average temperature of 39 degrees Fahrenheit (4 degrees Celsius). The ocean biome is naturally colder at the South Pole, but as you approach the equator, it becomes warmer because the sun rays strike the water surface directly.
4. The concept of a marine landscapes classification of the sea and seabed was developed with the aim of enabling action to be taken to benefit nature conservation in circumstances where marine biological data are limited. The classification is based on the assumption.

3. Rainforest Climate. In an average year in a tropical rain forest, the climate is very humid because of all the rainfall, which amounts to about 250 cm per year. The rain forest has lots of rain because it is very hot and wet.
4. Tropical rain forests inhabit the equatorial belt, and are characterized by intense sunlight, heat and large amounts of rainfall. The largest forests are found in South America, Central Africa and the Indonesian archipelago. Although rain forests across the world share certain characteristics

2. The beech, Sycamore, Oak, Aspen, Walnut tree, Lime tree, Chestnut tree, Birch, Elm, Tulip tree.
3. Summers are mild, and average about 70°F (21°C), while winter temperatures are often well below freezing. PLANTS: Trees and plants in deciduous forests have special adaptations to survive in this biome.
4. The temperate deciduous forest is a biome that is always changing. It has four distinct seasons: winter, spring, summer and fall. Winters are cold and summers are warm. Temperate deciduous forests get between 30 and 60 inches of precipitation a year.

2. Pine, White spruce, Hemlock, Douglas fir, Not many plants.
3. Taiga is in Köppen's Dfc climate category. The Dis a snow climate, while the means there is enough precipitation in all months. The means that fewer than 4 months have an average temperature over 50° F (10° C).
4.During the final period of maximum cold temperatures (23,000 to 16,500 years ago) in the latter part of the Pleistocene Ice Age (which ended 11,700 years ago), species that now constitute the taiga were displaced as far south as 30° N latitude by the continental glaciers of Europe, Asia, and North America and by the hyperarid and extremely cold environments of unglaciated Asia and North America.

2. Baobab,  Whistling Thorn, Umbrella Thorn Acacia, River Bushwillow, Kangaroo Paw Tree, Elephant Grass,  Jackalberry Tree, Bermuda Grass, Lupines.
3. 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.
4. Desert grassland and shrubland habitats resilient and where are priority areas with high potential for restoration? What are the most appropriate management and restoration techniques for desert grassland and shrubland habitats for conservation targets, site-specific conditions.  ]]> 2018-02-08 05:44:02 UTC https://padlet.com/304491/zgq7i3c5xenv/wish/229426628 Chaparral Ecosystem 304491 https://padlet.com/304491/zgq7i3c5xenv/wish/229428043 1. 100 types of birds, Acorn woodpeckers, Jack rabbits, Mule deer, Coyotes, Alligator lizards, Praying mantis, Horned toads, Ladybugs, And Honeybees.
2.  Poison oak, Yucca Wiple, shrubs, toyon, chamise, trees, cacti, Oak trees, pines and mahogany trees.
4.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.Most of the precipitation occurring in the Biome occurs during the winter months. Summers, which tend to be hot and dry, run about 104 °F, but can range from 30° and 120° F.
4. Summers are unique in the biome because while it can get very hot, temperatures can also quickly dip down to nearly freezing. Fires and droughts in the chaparral are very common in the summer. Rain totals in the biome average between 10-17 inches for the year, with most of that occurring during the winter. It receives more rainfall per year than the desert biome.]]> 2018-02-08 05:55:45 UTC https://padlet.com/304491/zgq7i3c5xenv/wish/229428043 Desert Ecosystem 304491 https://padlet.com/304491/zgq7i3c5xenv/wish/229616205 1.

3. 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. 
4. Deserts cover about one fifth of the Earth’s surface and occur where rainfall is less than 50 cm/year. Although most deserts, such as the Sahara of North Africa and the deserts of the southwestern U.S., Mexico, and Australia, occur at low latitudes.]]> 2018-02-08 15:22:25 UTC https://padlet.com/304491/zgq7i3c5xenv/wish/229616205 Tundra Ecosystem 304491 https://padlet.com/304491/zgq7i3c5xenv/wish/229754434 1.

3. 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.
4. Tundra is the coldest of all the biomes. Tundra comes from the Finnish word tunturia, meaning treeless plain. It is noted for its frost-molded landscapes, extremely low temperatures, little precipitation, poor nutrients, and short growing seasons.

3. The temperatures range from 65 °F to 75 °F in the summer and 35 °F to 45 °F in the winter. The climate of freshwater biome is determined by a number of factors including location, season and depth of water. On average, the temperature will decline as the water gets deeper. 
4. These are bodies of flowing water moving in one direction. Streams and rivers can be found everywhere — they get their starts at headwaters, which may be springs, snowmelt or even lakes, and then travel all the way to their mouths, usually another water channel or the ocean. The characteristics of a river or stream change during the journey from the source to the mouth. The temperature is cooler at the source than it is at the mouth. ]]> 2018-02-08 21:55:05 UTC https://padlet.com/304491/zgq7i3c5xenv/wish/229841119
