TROPICAL EVERGREEN FOREST:
as the name implies these forests are evergreen and they never shed their leaves in a particular season.since the leaves are present always they are known as evergreen forests.tropical evergreen forests are distributed in the regions of heavy rainfall.these forest are found along the slopes of the Nilgris and Anaimalai hills and the coastal areas of Tamilnadu.the hard wood trees like ebony,teak,rosewood and ironwood are also found here.they grow to a height of 60 cm.
TROPICAL TEMPERATE FOREST:
Temperate forests correspond to forest concentration formed in the northern and southern hemisphere, or in temperate regions. It is the same as a tropical forest except for the climate and some of the animal adaptations. Main characteristics include: wide leaves, large and tall trees, large wild canopy and non seasonal vegetation. Temperate forests can be further distinguished by weather patterns and geographical features that favor the predominance of certain kinds of trees. In temperate coniferous forests, evergreen conifers predominate, while in temperate broadleaf and mixed forests, a more even distribution exists between evergreen trees and deciduous trees. Temperate deciduous forests, a subgroup of temperate broadleaf forests, consist of trees that lose their leaves every year. Finally, temperate rainforests typically have heavy rainfall and dense humidity. But in some temperate forests there are just trees with needles and do not shed their leaves during the winter, so the climate is a little different and not as cold. They are also known as montane forests.
