and is distributed around the globe. This ecosystem is a complex web of organisms that includes
plants, animals, fungi and bacteria. There are broadly three major types of forests - tropical,
temperate, and boreal forests. They are classified depending on their latitude, local soil, rainfall
and prevailing temperatures. Tropical rainforests boast the great diversity of species of all
ecosystems on earth. They don't experience winter and normally receive 100 inches of rain
annually. Temperate coniferous forests are characterized by moist climate and a prolonged
growing season, thanks to high levels of precipitation. While boreal forests normally have thin soil,
thanks to the cold temperatures that undermine the rate of decomposition.
