Ephemeral Desert Flora Adaptations 
Ephemeral desert flora are plants that have adapted to thrive in the harsh conditions of deserts, where water is scarce and
temperatures can be extreme
...Temperatures Desert plants also face the challenge of extreme temperatures, ranging from scorching heat during the day to freezing
cold at night
...
Tundra Ecosystems A tundra is a vast, treeless biome characterized by low
temperatures, short growing seasons, and sparse vegetation
...Climate The climate of tundra ecosystems is characterized by long,
cold winters and short, cool summers
...
Ecosystem main types of ecosystems include: Type of Ecosystem Description Tundra The tundra is a
cold, treeless biome found in the Arctic and Antarctic regions
...It is characterized by low
temperatures, permafrost, and a short growing season
...
Effects of Climate Extremes As global
temperatures rise, tundras experience more frequent and intense heatwaves, leading to accelerated melting of permafrost
...Conversely, extreme
cold snaps can also occur in tundras, leading to prolonged periods of freezing temperatures
...
Arctic Tundra Dynamics The Arctic tundra is a unique biome characterized by its
cold and harsh climate, low biodiversity, and vast stretches of treeless land
...Average
temperatures range from -34°C in winter to 3°C in summer
...
Highland Forests Cooler Temperature Adaptations These forests are characterized by their cooler
temperatures, which present challenges for the plants and animals that call them home
...Some of these adaptations include: Compact growth habits to minimize exposure to
cold winds Thick, waxy leaves to reduce water loss and protect against frost Deep root systems to access water and nutrients in the rocky soil Ability to go dormant during the winter months These adaptations
...
Seasonal Variability in Tundra Ecosystems Tundra ecosystems are unique biomes characterized by extreme
cold temperatures, low precipitation, and permafrost
...
Subalpine Forests Wildlife and Vegetation Subalpine forests are unique ecosystems that thrive in high-altitude regions with cool
temperatures and abundant precipitation
...include: Engelmann spruce Subalpine fir Whitebark pine Mountain hemlock These trees are well-adapted to the
cold temperatures and thin soils of the subalpine zone
...
Taiga Pine Forest Adaptations The Taiga Pine Forest, also known as the boreal forest, is a biome characterized by its
cold climate and dominated by coniferous trees such as pine, spruce, and fir
...These adaptations allow them to thrive in low
temperatures, short growing seasons, and limited sunlight
...
Desert Nighttime Temperature Drop Temperature Fluctuations The temperature drop in deserts can be quite dramatic, with nighttime
temperatures often falling significantly compared to daytime highs
...Plants in deserts often have specialized mechanisms to cope with the
cold temperatures at night
