What are Temperate and Evergreen forests?
An evergreen forest is a forest consisting entirely or mainly of evergreen trees that retain green foliage all year round. Such forests reign the tropics primarily as broadleaf evergreens, and in temperate and boreal latitudes primarily as coniferous evergreens.
Temperate forests are areas with high levels of precipitation and humidity. These forests also contain a variety of deciduous trees. Deciduous trees lose their leaves in winter.
Due to abundant rainfall and thick soil humus, temperate forests are able to support a wide variety of vegetation. These forests are also home to a wide variety of animals.
