Tundra

I will be doing this research paper on the Tundra Biome. 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. There are a few special characteristics that this biome includes, which is, extremely cold climate, low biotic diversity, simple vegetation structure, limitation of drainage, short season of…

Alaska’s tundra support numerous avian migratory species during all four seasons, providing a breeding, rearing, staging, refugee and overwintering habitat. Some mammalian species that live in the Alaskan tundra are; muskox, caribou, foxes, wolves, lemmings and raptors. Some of the animals, such as the caribou, depend on tundra vegetation to survive the year. Foxes are dependent on the polar bear for the majority of its meals. For example, as soon as a polar bear is done consuming a seal, the…

A Tundra is a biome with little tree growth and low temperature. The Tundra is the coldest of all of the biomes it’s temperature is between 60 to 75 Degrees latitude. This biome is best noted for its snowy landscape and extreme low temperatures. Tundras are covered in snow for most of the year until the summer. The summer in the Tundras are cool in temperature. Lots of the snow melts into soggy marshes and bogs. The daytime temperatures during the summer rise to about 12 °C (54 °F) but my drop…

over at Toyota, where Tacoma models can tow a most extreme of 6,500 pounds when appropriately prepared. Despite the fact that tow-prepared Tundra models can pull more than 10,000 pounds, a base-level truck with the standard 4.7-liter V8 is restricted to under 7,000 pounds - about an indistinguishable figure from the Tacoma.…

The tundra biome is one of the few biomes that interests me the most, and is also one of the many biomes that may be in danger. The tundra has many threats such as construction, Ozone depletion, oil spills, and air pollution. Almost 20% of the world is in a tundra area, which is housing many different animals and plant life depending on this type of biome. When construction happens, buildings and roads get created, while knocking everything down in the process.The construction causes…

When I first met Zack, I didn’t think much of him at the time, until one day he initiated a conversation. From the conversation, the way he carried himself and his personality outshines from what I thought based on his appearance. There were hobbies that I could tell were his favorite, based on how he smiled whenever he was talking about them. He told me of his goals and just how he was talking about his goals made me believe that nothing will stop him from achieving his goals. However, Zack…

The Tundra is the coldest biome out of all of them. The word tundra means “treeless plain”. The tundra is known for its frosty landscapes, extremely low temperatures, little precipitation, poor nutrients, and short growing seasons. The tundra is characterized into two types: arctic tundra, and alpine tundra. There are many different characteristics that make tundra such a unique biome. The extremely low climate and low biodiversity are the most known. Most of the energy and nutrients…

the Arctic Tundra. The animal from Arctic Tundra I picked is the polar bear. Female polar bears would rather build their den in old snow,( like from a few years ago.) The polar bear is found in Canada , the U.S (Alaska), Greenland, Russia Norway (the Svalbard archipelago), and Arctic Tundra. The Arctic Tundra climate/weather averages to -30°F. In January it is the coldest weather in Arctic Tundra. It’s about -40°F, in January it has reached -93°F before. Most of the year Arctic Tundra is…

Arctic Tundra Have you ever wondered what Biome you live in? Maybe you live in two or three. There are so many things around us that could be an answer to that question. You might live in the Arctic Tundra Biome. The Arctic Tundra is a very different place compared to most. There is very little plant and animal life unlike other Biomes which are very populated with the living organisms. The Tundra is thought to be very cold and unlively and some people are right, but it isn’t always like that…

you ever wondered what animals live in the Arctic Tundra? Well a lot of animals live there and there’s a lot of places where the Arctic Tundra is located, but I’m talking about the amazing polar bear. There’s nothing that can even compare to them, that goes for the Arctic Tundra as well. The Arctic Tundra is found in a variety of locations; across Northern Alaska, Canada, and in Siberia. I’m talking about the Alaskan tundra though. The Arctic Tundra has a very unique climate, long cold winters…
