The temperate woodland biome has many habitats for different species with plenty of sunlight and resources, though only some shade. It is covered primarily by grasses, shrubs, and various tree species like oak and pine. This biome experiences hot, dry summers and cold, moist winters. It contains many biotic factors including various plants, insects, and animal species like deer, foxes, owls, and more. Abiotic factors include fertile soil, small ponds, creeks, rocks, gases, and sunlight.

1. Temperate WoodlandBy Reed Walstad

2. Day 1: BiomeInformation The temperate woodland is a low density environment that has many habitats for different species with plenty of sunlight and resources. Even though there is plenty of sunlight, there is only certain amount of shade. Most of the land covered by this biome is grasses, shrubs, and many trees! Multiple varieties of trees are in this biome such as oak, pine, pecan, and many more. This biome is hot and dry in the summer, but in the winter, it is cold and moist.

13. Day 3 Continued… Mutualism- Algae gives a tree nutrition while the tree gives it somewhere to stay. Therefore, they both benefit each other for each others survival.Commensalism- Trees benefits the birds of this biome. The trees supply homes and some food for the bird while the bird lives there. Parasitism- Us, the humans, get our timber from these types of biomes, but while we get our supply of wood from that, the trees get cut down, which can also affect the animals. Some animals would lose their homes and some lose foods. We benefit from this but it kills plants and many types of animals

14. Day 4:1. If a temperate woodland biome would have a wildfire, this truly would be one of the worst disasters that could happen to this biome. Many habitats would lost for animals in it and also many, many trees would be burned down and could stop making oxygen and taking in harmful carbon dioxide. This would affect this biome greatly.

15. Day 4 Continued…2. The biome would still look like a wildfire hit it until succession has fully taken over. The shrubs, bushes and grasses would come first and then over time the trees would grow and become back to if not normal size again. The woodland would then begin to get some animals moving in slowly. The population of plants and animals would then gradually grow throughout the months.
