Forests are characterized by a dense collection of trees and other vegetation. They provide habitat for diverse plant and animal species, regulate the climate by absorbing carbon dioxide and releasing oxygen, and offer recreational and economic opportunities for humans. Forests are vital for maintaining ecological balance and biodiversity.
* Xeric upland forest occurs mainly in the Shawnee Hills in southern Illinois on sites where the soils are even thinner than those of barrens. The trees have a stunted, gnarly growth form on these nutrient poor, droughty soils. * Dry upland forests grows on steep ridges, along rocky cliffs, and on bedrock outcrops along the Mississippi River and in the Shawnee Hills. Many of these sites were barrens in the past when natural fires were not extinguished by humans. The soils are thin and excessively drained, but the trees are not as stunted as those of the xeric upland forest, which have even thinner soils.
# Barrens means describes a variety of open-canopied forests with understories of grasses and prairie plants. They are a unique combination of forest (oak) opening and prairie surrounded by dry or mesic upland forests with greater canopy cover. Both barrens and savannas have widely spaced trees and understories of grasses, but whereas savannas occur on a range of soils from nutrient poor to nutrient rich, barrens are restricted to poor, thin, excessively drained soils.
Hey this is Roxanne! :)
And precisely from my point this question has many answers!
Well a forest has trees which gives a wildlife to it and animals, obviously for their shelter. Birds, they help the plants in pollination and fertilization in the plants that grow there. River and fertile soil in the deep end of the forest for growing crops and veggies (not forgetting our dear fruits). That's why, did you notice that people like to live more in the forest than in the modern
country and towns we live today (for the crops).
Kind Regards for this answer,

No, population is not a physical feature. It refers to the number of people living in a particular area or region. Physical features include natural characteristics like mountains, rivers, and forests.
forests have a lot of trees plants and animals.
Temperate forests typically have more diverse tree species and experience a wider range of temperatures compared to taiga forests, which are dominated by coniferous trees and have colder temperatures. Taiga forests are also found at higher latitudes than temperate forests.
Wombats are native to Australia, where they can be found across various habitats, including forests, grasslands, and semi-arid areas. They are marsupials known for their unique characteristics, such as their sturdy build and burrowing behavior.
Forests similar to Monongahela National Forest in the United States include George Washington and Jefferson National Forests, Pisgah National Forest, and Chattahoochee-Oconee National Forest. These forests are known for their diverse ecosystems, abundant recreational opportunities, and protected wildlife habitats.
Big
abundant forests
the answer to that question it is the characteristics of the tropical savanna is the Dry Forests, Tropical savanna, or the grasslands.Got it?
Many forests, mud,etc.
The main types of forests include tropical rainforests, temperate forests, boreal forests, and deciduous forests. Each type of forest has distinct characteristics in terms of climate, soil, vegetation, and biodiversity.
A forest characterized by trees that seasonally shed their leaves.
Forests, lakes, cold snowy winters and very bright summers.
Great question! 3 geographical characteristics of Massachusetts: 1.) Low range mountains (from 2,000 to 5,500 feet) 2.) Large bays (Cape Cod. Eastern Mass) 3.) Varying temperate deciduous forests (mild forests that we live in)
Romania has mountains and hills, rivers and lakes, sea, caves, forests, plains etc.
It depends on which Waverly hills you are referring to. The key characteristics of Waverly Hills in Cape Town are: vineyards and forests. The key characteristics of Waverly Hills in Kentucky are ghost walking tours and the haunted sanatorium.
Temperature range: 0 to 100 FGeography: Temperate broadleaved mixed forests (Appalachian mixed mesophytic), Highland forests / Sedimentary Mountain through freshwater swamps
It is possible to see in Romania mountains and hills, rivers and lakes, sea, caves, forests, plains etc.
