Earth's biomes, illustration. Terrestrial biomes (also called ecosystems) are geographic land areas with similar climatic conditions, often characterised by the plants and animals found there. Ten biomes are shown here, though more complex classifications subdivide these biomes further. The biomes are colour-coded key: temperate broadleaf forest (red); coniferous forest (blue); temperate grassland (orange); Mediterranean (yellow); tropical rainforest (dark green); desert (bright pink); tundra (dark pink); tropical grassland (light green); mountains (purple); and polar (white). | |
