Tropical rainforest

twenty two percent of the original parts of the forest that cover the world continue to be untouched. Some of these areas are located in Canada, Russia, and the tropical forest of the northwest Amazon. Forests cover more than one quarter of the total land area in the earth, and more than fifty percent of the forests are found in tropical areas, while the rest are in temperate zones (Global Change Biology, P. 5). It is our responsibility to keep all these areas that will protect the planet from…

Deforestation is one of the major global issues of the contemporary world. Humans and animals depend on trees for the production of oxygen so that they can breathe, yet universally, world annual deforestation is estimated at 13.7 million hectares a year. The annihilation of such immense quantities of forestland will have devastating consequences in the future, especially considering that fewer trees will result in a smaller intake of carbon dioxide, adding more emissions to the greenhouse effect…

effectively. Management can be broken down into two broad categories: traditional and contemporary management. It is evident through the case studies; the Daintree Rainforest and Bicentennial Park the ecological sustainability of these traditional and contemporary management strategies. The Daintree Rainforest is a tropical rainforest measuring approximately 1200km2 located on the north east coast of Queensland. Home to an abundance of flora and fauna, the Daintree is one of the most complex…

Introduction: Our biome is the rainforest. The specific rainforest that we picked was the Amazon Rainforest. We picked this type of rainforest because there are many problems. That are destroying the living, for this specific rainforest to live. Here we have in our proposal why you should choose our biome for the zoo. The proposal is to allow you to save this type of ecosystem…

reported that Africa, Latin America and the Caribbean had experienced a combined loss of 300 million hectares of forests from the year 1990 to present. Deforestation rates today are 8.5% higher than what they were 20 years ago and the loss of tropical rainforests has increased by up to 25% since 1990. These are only a few of the horrifying statistics of how we are destroying our Earth daily and reasons for why we need nature conservation. In the past 20 years, nature conservation has become a…

provide habitats for many different animals. The trees found in forests are also a vital element in environments. 2. Identify two different types of forest environments. Two different types of forest environments are Tropical Rainforests and Coniferous Forests. Tropical Rainforests are typically dense and are located near the equator. Whereas, Coniferous Forests are located near the two poles and is usually in a snowy environment. 3. Explain the importance of forest environment in supporting…

The Cape York Peninsula (CYP) Bioregion is located on the Northern Queensland, which are included woodlands and rainforest along the east coast.() As a result of its geographical position, regional weather and countless havens, therefore, Cape York had a vital ecological value for the Australia regarded as pest and disease controls among the entire areas (The Department of State Development, Infrastructure and Planning, 2014). Cape York Peninsula is a high-risk area for the entry of exotic…

United States 93% of the entire land is suffering from slight to moderate erosion. To solve problems with deforestation we should have more natural parks to reserve rainforests. According to ‘The Rainforest’ “Fewer than 5% of the world’s tropical forests are included in parks or other kinds of protected areas,” (The Rainforest 105). As important as reserves are, even being a managed area isn’t safe if there are human neighbors with children yet not having resources like food. Many…

of plants and bacteria, and a large variety of ecological services. They are beneficial to humans, their inhabitants, and the earth in which we live. However, recent studies reveal that deforestation has diminished nearly three-quarters of tropical rainforests within the past decade. A world without forests is quickly becoming reality. Deforestation refers to a large area of trees and the surrounding environment being cut down at once. This is a common process used throughout our world as a way…

them. What impact we have on the animal. And finally, how many are left on this Earth, that's what I will be talking about. Habitat of an Okapi and how they live in it. Their habitat is usually rainy and forest. They mostly found in dense tropical rainforest in the North - Eastern Democratic Republic of Congo. How it´s being hurt right now is because they are cutting down the forests which is making the animals able to be seen more by the…
