Tropical deciduous forests, Biology

Assignment Help:

Rainfall is high, sometimes higher than tropical rain forests but seasonal. There are pronounced wet and dry periods, and so are winter and summer seasons. The soils are brown in colour and rich in nutrients.

Vertical stratification in the vegetation is somewhat simple with a single understorey tree layer. The trees loose leaves in one season but ground vegetation remains evergreen. ‘Teak' and ‘sal' forests are good examples of this type of biome. Trees are of 20-30 m height, sometimes reaching a height over 40 m in this biome. Bamboo is also one of the climax shrubs in these areas.
