Being surrounded by ginseng--a low-growing green-leafed herb of North American forests--may have been common in 1751, but today? Ginseng is under siege.
Biologist James McGraw of West Virginia University should know. Today on World Environment Day, and indeed every day, McGraw says that we can learn much about the environment around us from one small plant.
Funded by a National Science Foundation (NSF) Long Term Research in Environmental Biology (LTREB) grant, McGraw and colleagues peer into the lives of more than 4,000 individual ginseng plants each year to see how they're faring.
"These understory plants are subject to all manner of [environmental] stresses," says McGraw. "After a while, you begin to wonder why there are any left."
Tropical rainforests power pt
1) Tropical rainforests have four distinct vegetation layers: the emergent layer, canopy layer, understory layer, and ground layer.
2) Trees in the rainforest have adaptations like buttress roots and drip tips to withstand the wet conditions.
3) Biodiversity is extremely high in the rainforest, with many species of plants, animals, birds, mammals, reptiles, amphibians, and arthropods adapted to life in the dense canopy.
Major Rainforest Regions
Rainforests are found near the Earth's equator in South America, Africa, Asia, and Australia. They have hot temperatures around 80 degrees and receive heavy rainfall, around 6 inches per month. This climate allows dense vegetation to grow, including many tall tree species. Rainforests are home to a diverse array of animal species, both in the canopy layer and on the forest floor. Some of the notable animals that live in rainforests include orangutans, jaguars, toucans, and poison dart frogs. Indigenous tribes still inhabit some rainforest areas and rely on the forest's resources for survival. Rainforests are considered essential due to the many species they support, their provision of natural medicines and
Rainforest Ppp
Rainforests are dense forests found in hot, wet regions that receive at least 254 cm of rainfall annually. They are important because they generate most of the Earth's oxygen and are home to millions of plant and animal species. There are two main types of rainforests - tropical rainforests near the equator with consistent high temperatures and rainfall throughout the year, and temperate rainforests along coastal regions in temperate zones. Rainforests have four layers - the emergent layer at the top which is sunny, the canopy layer where most trees grow, the understory layer with dense vegetation below the canopy, and the dark forest floor covered in dead leaves and plants.

Tropical rainforests are characterized by year-round high temperatures and rainfall. They have several distinct layers including an emergent layer with the tallest trees reaching 50-80 meters, a canopy layer from 20-30 meters, and an undergrowth layer with sparse vegetation. Rainforests provide many benefits such as being habitats for biodiversity, sources of medicines and timber, and helping regulate the Earth's climate by absorbing carbon dioxide. However, they are being destroyed for agriculture, logging and other human activities.

Tropical rainforests
Tropical rainforests have several key characteristics:
1) They contain many trees and have a warm, wet climate with high rainfall.
2) They are home to a vast diversity of species, including mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, insects, and plants.
3) Many species have adaptations that allow them to thrive in the rainforest habitat, such as camouflage coloring, large beaks, or slow movement.
Jungle Facts.pptx
The jungle is home to over half the world's plant and animal species, with very dense vegetation and forests that create a dark environment under the canopy due to only 1% of sunlight reaching the forest floor. Jungle habitats in South America, Africa, and Asia are teeming with a diverse array of wildlife including jaguars, elephants, monkeys, snakes, spiders, and more, with some species yet to be discovered.
Tropical andes
The tropical Andes biodiversity hotspot spans 1,542,664 square kilometers across western South America. It contains the world's richest flora, with over 30,000 plant species, 15,000 of which are endemic to the region. The tropical Andes also have the highest levels of endemism for amphibians, with 673 of 981 species being found nowhere else. However, the region faces numerous threats to its biodiversity, including mining, oil exploration, urban growth, and climate change.
rainforestpresentation-100301230550-phpapp02.pptx
The document discusses the structure and inhabitants of rainforests. It describes the four layers of a rainforest: the emergent layer consisting of the tallest trees up to 250 feet tall, the canopy layer that forms the primary cover up to 150 feet, the understory layer below receiving only 2-5% of sunlight, and the forest floor with few plants. Different plants and animals inhabit each layer, including sloths, jaguars, poison dart frogs, chameleons, toucans and more. The largest rainforests are located in the Amazon River Basin, Congo River Basin, and throughout Southeast Asia, though they can be found all over the tropics.
