Grassland Biome
This document provides information about grassland biomes. It describes the key characteristics of grasslands, including the dominance of grasses and lack of many trees. It discusses the two main types of grasslands: temperate and tropical. Temperate grasslands have distinct growing and dormant seasons while tropical grasslands have consistent warm weather. The document also examines various grassland ecosystems like savannas, prairies, and steppes. It profiles the many plant and animal species that thrive in grasslands, such as bison, prairie dogs, meadowlarks, and rattlesnakes. The role of fire in maintaining grassland ecology is also explained.
Grassland
The grasslands biome is dominated by grasses and other herbaceous plants called forbs. It covers more of the Earth's surface than any other biome. North American grasslands can be divided into tallgrass, mixed grass, and shortgrass prairies depending on the average precipitation and height of the dominant grasses. While grasses remain green and growing in the spring and summer, they become brown and dried out in the autumn and winter. Grasslands support a diversity of primary consumers and provide habitat for species like bison, prairie dogs, meadowlarks and rattlesnakes. However, over 99% of North American grasslands have been converted to agricultural use like growing corn and wheat.

Grasslands (teach)
There are two main types of grasslands: temperate grasslands and savannas. Temperate grasslands, also called prairies, are located in parts of North America, South America, Eurasia, South Africa, and have flat land with low rainfall. Savannas are tropical grasslands near the equator with scattered trees and distinct wet and dry seasons. Both grassland types support many herbivores and associated carnivores adapted to the open landscape.
Grassland biome
Sydney, Australia is located on the eastern coast of Australia in a tropical biome. The climate is temperate with rainfall spread throughout the year. Common fauna include the fairy penguin, red kangaroo, and koala. Flora includes the desert oak, eucalyptus trees, and cabbage palms. The author believes grasslands are the most important biome as they support the greatest diversity of plant and animal species and disruptions could negatively impact ecosystems.
Temperate grassland
Temperate Grassland biomes are large areas dominated by grasses, flowers and herbs with few trees. These biomes support many large animals like bison, elephants and giraffes through their fertile soils and semiarid climate. Temperate grasslands contain some of the most productive land for grazing and agriculture.

1) Grasslands provide important ecosystem functions such as carbon storage, nutrient recycling, and habitat. They also act as a buffer between deserts and forests.
2) Fires play an essential role in grassland ecosystems, occurring naturally every 4-20 years on average depending on climate and vegetation. Fire controls species dominance and facilitates germination.
3) Widespread conversion of grasslands to agriculture and urbanization has dramatically reduced grassland areas worldwide. Remaining grasslands face threats from overgrazing, invasive species, and changes in historic fire regimes.

Prairies of the great plains
The document discusses the prairies of the Great Plains of North America. It describes three main types of prairies from east to west - tallgrass prairie, mixed grass prairie, and shortgrass prairie - which differ in their dominant grass species and climate due to decreasing precipitation. The prairies originated around 10,000 years ago after glacial retreat left grasslands too dry for forests to reestablish. Today, only small fragments of intact prairie remain due to agricultural and urban development.
Story of grassland
Daisy and Julie talk about grasslands after Daisy's absence from school. Grasslands developed in areas with environmental conditions between forests and deserts. They contain a nearly continuous cover of grasses and support various herbivores and predators. Temperate grasslands experience distinct seasons with hot summers and cold winters, while tropical grasslands have rainy and dry seasons without spring or fall. Common plant species in grasslands include types of grasses like big bluestem and varieties of bamboo.
Completed temperate grassland presentation
Temperate grasslands are found on several continents including North America, Eurasia, South America, Africa, Australia and New Zealand. They are characterized by large, flat lands with very rich soil that supports a variety of grasses and shrubs. During winter, the grasses die off leaving hummus. Temperate grasslands receive between 25-75 cm of annual precipitation and temperatures can range from over 100 degrees F in summer to below -40 degrees F in winter. Common animal species include bison, deer, elk, prairie dogs, rabbits, birds, snakes and foxes while common plant species are cottonwoods, oaks, willows, purple needle grass and sunflowers.

Temperate Grassland Makayla
Temperate grasslands are located throughout North America, Eurasia, Australia, and Africa. They are characterized by grasses as the dominant vegetation and lack trees. Temperate grasslands have hot summers and cold winters, with a growing season of 100-175 days when temperatures are above freezing. Common grass species include purple needlegrass, blue grama, buffalo grass, and galleta, while flowers such as asters, blazing stars, coneflowers, goldenrods, sunflowers, clovers, psoraleas, and wild indigos also grow. Animals that inhabit grasslands have adapted to the dry, windy conditions.
Educational technology 2 Demo.
Tropical grasslands are located near the equator between the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn in Africa, Australia, South America, and India. They are dominated by grasses 3-6 feet tall and may include some drought or fire resistant trees. The climate is hot year-round with annual rainfall between 20-50 inches concentrated in 6-8 months, followed by drought, which prevents the establishment of forests. Common threats include poaching, overgrazing, clearing for agriculture, and desertification.
Temperate grasslands
Temperate grasslands exist on every continent except Antarctica and contain a variety of grasses, flowers, and herbs. These grasslands experience hot summers and cold winters. Common plant species include grey-headed coneflower and wild bergamot while animal species include coyotes, bald eagles, prairie dogs, bumble bees, and quails. The climate features temperatures below 18°C in winter and above 32°C in summer with low rainfall, making trees unable to grow. Humans have impacted grasslands through farming and overhunting.
Life in temperate grasslands
The document discusses the temperate grasslands of North America (called the Prairies) and South Africa (called the Velds). It describes the climate, vegetation, animals, and human activities found in each region. The Prairies have a continental climate with hot summers and cold winters. Tall grass dominates and the bison was an important animal. People engage in cattle ranching and farming. The Velds have a milder climate due to ocean influence and receive summer rainfall. Grasses, acacia trees and animals like lions are found there. People raise cattle and sheep, and mining is important.
Temperate grassland2
Temperate grasslands have sparse trees and extensive grasses and herbs. They experience hot summers and cold winters with average annual precipitation of 20-35 inches. Common biotic factors include various grasses, flowers, rabbits, deer, snakes, birds, and insects. Abiotic factors include rolling hills and valleys at elevations usually between 2,000-10,000 feet with fertile soil and average wind speeds of 15-20 mph. Wildfires play an important role in maintaining biodiversity by preventing tree overgrowth and stimulating new plant growth.

Grassland ecosystem
Grasslands are areas dominated by grasses and other herbaceous plants located between forests and deserts. They occur on all continents except Antarctica and cover 25% of the Earth's surface. Grasslands experience moderate rainfall between 250-900mm annually and have temperatures ranging from -5 to 30 degrees Celsius. They support diverse flora and fauna and provide important ecosystem services such as livestock grazing. However, grasslands are threatened by urbanization, agriculture, and climate change. Conservation efforts aim to prevent overgrazing and fires while establishing protected areas.
Grass land ecosystem
Grasslands occupy 19% of the Earth's surface and are found in regions like Russia, Siberia, North America, and Africa. Grasslands are characterized by plains with various grasses between 0.5 to 3 meters tall. The climate features annual rainfall between 75 to 100 cm and temperatures from 15°C to 32°C. Trees are absent due to high transpiration rates. Herbivores like rabbits, mice, antelope, and zebra dominate the landscape. The abiotic components include nutrients in the soil and air like carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and phosphorus. Grasses, herbs and shrubs are the primary producers, while deer, sheep, and rabbits are primary consumers. Fro
