This forest type—termed by the book’s authors as “temperate and boreal rainforests”—are essentially forests that receive high levels of precipitation but, unlike tropical rainforests, these forests are in high latitudes where the temperature remains cool. Most of these forests are also found near coastlines.
The term “boreal” is used by the book’s authors to describe the northernmost of these rainforests. Some of these unique forest habitats occur within the vast six million km2 (1.4 billion acre) ecoregion known as Canada’s Boreal Forest within British Columbia, Newfoundland, and Quebec as shown in the accompanying map.
