The document discusses the two main types of rainforests - tropical and temperate. Tropical rainforests are located in tropical regions and have an average temperature of 77F year-round. Temperate rainforests experience seasons and cooler average temperatures of 50F. Both receive high annual rainfall. The rainforest is divided into four layers - emergent, canopy, understory, and forest floor. Each layer contains different types of plants and animals adapted to the available sunlight and conditions in that area of the rainforest.

Tropical rainforest
Tropical rainforests are found between 10 degrees north and south of the equator, mainly in the Amazon Basin, Congo Basin, and parts of Southeast Asia. They have 5 layers - emergent, canopy, understory, shrub, and undergrowth. Tropical rainforests are adapted to high heat and rainfall through features like broad, evergreen leaves and buttress roots, and adaptations like waxy leaves that shed water easily and shallow roots that spread widely to absorb nutrients. Common plant types include epiphytes that grow on trees, lianas that use trees to reach sunlight, and parasitic plants that compete with host trees.
TROPICAL RAINFOREST
The document defines tropical rainforests and provides information about their climate, layers, plants, animals, and threats from deforestation. It notes that tropical rainforests have year-round warmth and high humidity, giant bamboo can grow 9 inches per day, and the dense canopy means rain takes 10 minutes to reach the ground. It lists species diversity in South American butterflies, Central African plants, and Asian flying animals. The document also discusses the climate and rainfall in Philippine rainforests and provides statistics on deforestation rates.
Tropical rainforest
This document summarizes key aspects of tropical rainforests, including their location, climate characteristics, soil type, vegetation layers, threats, and causes of deforestation. Tropical rainforests are located between 5-10 degrees north and south of the equator in countries like Brazil, Indonesia, and the Amazon Basin. They have high temperatures, rainfall, and humidity that support the growth of deep, nutrient-poor soils and several vegetation layers ranging from emergent trees to an understory. Common threats include slash-and-burn agriculture, fires, logging, cattle ranching, and agriculture which have significantly reduced tropical rainforest coverage due to unsustainable practices.
Coniferous forests (teach)
Introduces the elementary student to some more of the basic aspects of the geography and climate of the Coniferous forests and to plant and animal adaptions needed to survive there.
Tropical rainforests structure and adaptation
The document describes the three-layer structure of rainforests, which consists of an emergent layer with the tallest trees up to 50-80m, a canopy layer of trees 20-30m tall that block 90% of sunlight, and an undergrowth layer of shorter trees under 20m. Rainforest plants have adaptations like tall trunks to maximize sunlight exposure, waxy leaves to reduce water loss, and buttress roots to support heavy trunks in the wet climate. Lianas and epiphytes also grow in the canopy using trees for structure and sunlight.
Tropical Rainforest Biome
The tropical rainforest is Earth's most biologically diverse biome. It has four distinct layers - the emergent layer of tall trees, the upper canopy layer where most animals live, the understory layer of shrubs and small trees with constant high humidity, and the dark forest floor that receives less than 1% of sunlight. Despite low-nutrient soils from heavy rainfall and weathering, the rainforest supports a wide variety of adapted plant and animal species through nutrient recycling and specialized structures for gathering light.
The Tropical Rainforest 2
The tropical rainforests of North America are located in Central America and include countries like Mexico, Belize, and Panama. They have warm temperatures around 77 degrees Fahrenheit year-round with high rainfall of about 100 inches per year. Trees dominate the rainforest, with large trees like Mahogany reaching heights of 150 feet. Animals in the rainforest have adaptations to survive, with spider monkeys using their long limbs and tails to move through the trees and gaudy leaf frogs camouflaging themselves to avoid predation. The rainforest is structured into different layers from the emergent canopy layer down to the dark forest floor below.
Natural vegetation e learning
The document describes different types of natural vegetation and their relationship to climate. It discusses three main types of natural vegetation - forests, grasslands, and deserts - and provides details on their characteristics and climatic requirements. Specific vegetation types like tropical rainforests, deciduous forests, coniferous forests, tropical grasslands, and deserts are examined in terms of their distribution and defining climatic conditions.

Secondary 1 Geography-Tropical Savannahs
Tropical savannahs experience very high temperatures between 20 to 30 degrees Celsius and receive rainfall between 200 to 1000 millimeters annually. They are found in central and southern Africa, Venezuela, Brazil, India, and Australia. Tropical savannahs are characterized by tall grass, scattered trees, and small shrubs that are adapted to dry conditions. Fires frequently occur during dry periods and can be caused by lightning.
Tropical rainforest
Tropical rainforests exist within 28 degrees north and south of the equator. They receive high rainfall, have warm temperatures, and high humidity. Though they cover less than 6% of the Earth's land, they are home to 50% of animals and plants and produce 40% of the oxygen. The four main types are lowland equatorial evergreen, moist deciduous and semi-evergreen seasonal, montane, and flooded forests. Rainforests have distinct layers - the forest floor, understory, canopy, and emergent layer - which each have unique environmental conditions and species adaptations.
Terrestrial Ecosysytem
This document describes several terrestrial ecosystems - forests, deciduous forests, coniferous forests, rainforests, and grasslands. Deciduous forests have four seasons and trees that lose their leaves in fall. Coniferous forests are colder and have needle-like leaves and trees that produce seeds in cones. Rainforests are very warm, rainy, and humid with rich plant and animal life. Grasslands have tall grasses and some shrubs with gentle hills and animals like prairie dogs and bison.
The rainforest
The document provides links to various resources about rainforests, including videos, paintings, maps, and images. It includes discussion questions for each resource to help students understand different aspects of rainforest ecology, culture, and the threats of deforestation. Key vocabulary words are also provided to support student comprehension.
Climate in the rainforest
The document discusses the climate of rainforests located near the equator. It notes that rainforests have hot and wet conditions year-round due to their proximity to the equator. Temperatures remain high because the sun's rays are always strong and vertical, heating the ground efficiently. Heavy rainfall results from convection as the sun heats the ground and air rises, cools, and condenses into rainclouds. Daily weather patterns typically involve morning sun and heating followed by afternoon thunderstorms.
Rainforest
A rainforest is a warm, wet forest with four layers - emergent, canopy, understory, and forest floor. It is home to many diverse species including fruit bats and kinkajous in the canopy; harpy eagles in the emergent layer; three-toed sloths and toucans in the canopy; howler monkeys and scarlet macaws in the canopy; green iguanas in the canopy; jaguars in the understory; leaf cutter ants and blue morpho butterflies on the forest floor. The document provides information on the layers of the rainforest and some of the animal species found in each layer.

Rainforests Powerpoint
The document discusses key facts about tropical rainforests. It notes that rainforests cover only 6% of the planet's surface but contain over half of all plant and animal species. The largest rainforest, the Amazon, spans 2.5 million square miles across South America and produces over 20% of the world's oxygen. Rainforests exist near the equator in a band around the globe, where temperatures remain warm year-round without freezing. Over 30 million species of plants and animals, including toucans, jaguars, monkeys, frogs, gorillas, tigers, and gibbons, live together in the dense environments of the rainforest.
Saving the Rainforest
The document discusses rainforests, the threats they face, and actions individuals can take to help protect them. Rainforests are home to over 1 million species and play a key role in regulating temperatures and producing oxygen. However, a football field worth of rainforest is destroyed every second, putting species and the climate at risk. The document provides information on organizations individuals can donate to or volunteer with to help combat deforestation and promote reforestation.
3rd Amy, Cassidy, Shelby, Talia
The rainforest is a beautiful and amazing place that is home to many endangered species and plants and animals that could provide cures. The rainforest also produces a significant amount of the world's oxygen and its destruction is occurring at an alarming rate, with huge areas being lost every minute. Saving the rainforest is important because it would be a tragedy to lose such a special place and all it contains.
6th Amelia, Bryce, Kelly, Tanner
The document discusses the importance of protecting rainforests and the negative impacts of deforestation. It notes that rainforests contain a high percentage of the world's animal species, provide important medicines, produce oxygen, regulate the climate, and are being destroyed at an alarming rate every year. The document urges readers to help stop rainforest destruction and warns that the consequences of widespread deforestation would be severe.

Saving the rainforest project
This proposal outlines plans to raise $1,000 or more for the Rainforest Alliance through various school fundraisers. The money would be donated to support the Rainforest Alliance's work in education, sustainable agriculture and forestry, tourism, and fighting climate change. Two initial fundraisers include selling popcorn at football games and bracelets during lunch. A third proposed fundraiser is a dog wash event. The document argues that saving rainforests is important for biodiversity, climate regulation, medicine, and more. It identifies logging, agriculture, dams, mining and unsustainable tourism as key threats to rainforests.
Pfeiffer - Save the Rainforest
Deforestation is threatening rainforests and the plants and animals that live in them. Around 50,000 indigenous people also call the rainforests home. Rainforests are being cut down at an alarming rate of 6,000 acres per hour, often to make way for logging and agriculture. However, rainforests provide humans with many important resources like medicines and foods. To help save the rainforests, the author pledges to spread awareness and get others involved through activities like making posters and talking to friends and family.

The rainforest
Rainforests are forests in hot tropical climates with very tall trees. They receive about an inch of rain daily. Rainforests are important because they help regulate the climate and provide habitat for many plants and animals. However, some people destroy rainforests by mining, drilling for oil, and clearing land for agriculture, harming the environment. We can help save rainforests by planting new trees and encouraging sustainable practices.
Interactive Powerpoint Project
The document provides information about rainforests, including their location, the animals that live there, the climate, and some fun facts. Rainforests can be found on every continent except Antarctica and cover about 6% of the Earth's surface. They are home to over half of all plant and animal species, including many endangered animals. The climate is very wet with rain every day and temperatures between 75-80 degrees Fahrenheit year-round. Over 56,000 square miles of rainforest are lost each year.

Tropical Rainforests
Tropical rainforests are defined by high precipitation, temperature, and humidity. They support a high level of biodiversity despite covering a small area of the planet. Plants and animals in rainforests have adapted to the dense canopy structure through traits like buttresses, prop roots, epiphytic growth, and camouflage. However, human activities like deforestation, overexploitation, mining, agriculture, and introducing invasive species are degrading many rainforests and reducing biodiversity.
Terrestial and Aquatic Biomes Presentation
This document discusses different biomes and their defining characteristics. It begins by defining biomes as large regions characterized by specific climates and plant and animal communities. It then discusses how climate, especially temperature and precipitation, determines the vegetation of a biome. Specific biomes covered include tropical rainforests, temperate forests, taiga, grasslands, chaparral, and deserts. For each biome, the document describes the climate, dominant plant types, and common animal adaptations.
Biotic and abiotic factors
This document discusses the biotic and abiotic factors of tropical rainforests and how plants and animals have adapted to these conditions. It describes how animals like primates, aye-ayes and birds have physical adaptations for life in the canopy. It also discusses how insects, predators and poisonous frogs have adapted camouflage or bright colors. On the plant side, it covers adaptations like buttresses, prop roots, drip tips and pitcher plants. For abiotic factors, it focuses on the high rainfall, temperature, sunlight levels and soil conditions in rainforests.

Tropical rainforest
Tropical rainforests have four distinct layers - the emergent layer, canopy layer, understory layer, and forest floor layer. The emergent layer contains the tallest trees that rise above all other plants. The dense canopy layer is where most plant and animal life exists. The understory layer contains smaller trees and plants growing below the canopy. Finally, the dark and damp forest floor receives only 2% of sunlight. Tropical rainforests are located between the Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn and can be found in parts of Central and South America, Africa, India, Southeast Asia, New Guinea, and Australia.
Tropical rainforests
Tropical rainforests are located near the equator and have hot, moist climates with no dry season. They have several layers of vegetation including emergent trees that can reach heights of 72 meters, an upper canopy of smaller trees, and an understory of shrubs and vines. These forests support a high level of biodiversity and many species interact and depend on each other for survival. However, human activities like deforestation and pollution are reducing tropical rainforest habitats and negatively impacting the balance of these ecosystems. Conservation efforts aim to protect remaining rainforests and restore damaged areas to preserve biodiversity and ecosystem services.

2. Tropical deciduous forests are located in parts of Central and South America and receive 100-200 cm of annual rainfall. Trees include sal, teak, neem and mango and shed their leaves during the dry season.
3. Temperate grasslands exist in mid-latitudes and are known by different names in different regions. Tall trees grow in wet areas while shorter grass is found in dry areas, and the land is best suited for cattle and
The Earth's natural vegetation
Natural vegetation refers to plants that grow without human assistance. It is an important part of the physical environment and ecosystem, as plants provide food and resources for humans and animals. Natural vegetation can be classified into different types based on location and climate, including forest, grassland, and desert vegetation. The dominant types of forests include tropical rainforests near the equator and temperate coniferous forests at higher latitudes. Forests are important habitats, provide raw materials, help regulate climate, and are used for recreation.
Social seminar 1
Tropical rainforests are located in hot, wet equatorial regions and have a large variety of plants and creepers. Animals like koalas, tigers, tortoises and elephants live there. Temperate forests in areas with moderate temperatures and rainfall have both deciduous and coniferous trees, and animals such as chameleons, macaws, leopards and butterflies. Boreal forests in very cold regions between -50 to 30 degrees C have snowfall between 40 to 100cm annually and are home to snow cows, yaks, tigers and bears.
Vegetation and wildlife class vii cbse
Natural vegetation can be classified into forests, grasslands, and shrubs. Forests grow where temperature and rainfall support trees, and include tropical rainforests, tropical deciduous forests, temperate evergreen and deciduous forests, and coniferous forests. Grasslands include tropical and temperate grasslands. Shrubs include thorny bushes found in dry, desert-like regions. Tundra vegetation consists of mosses, lichens, and small shrubs in polar regions.
Tropical Savanna Biome
Tropical savannas have a wet and dry climate, located in tropical regions of Africa, India, South America, and Australia. They experience high temperatures year-round and seasonal rainfall, with long dry seasons receiving less than 4 inches of rain. Common plants include tall grasses, acacia trees, and baobab trees. Many large animal species live in the savanna, such as elephants, lions, and zebras, and have adaptations like migration and camouflage to survive the climate. Both plants and animals have developed strategies like water storage, dormancy, and fire resistance to endure seasonal drought and fires.
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.
NATURAL VEGETATION.pptx
Natural vegetation refers to plant communities that have grown naturally without human influence for a long time. The type of natural vegetation depends on temperature, moisture, soil thickness, and other climate factors. Natural vegetation is generally classified into forests, grasslands, and shrubs. Forests grow in regions with ample rainfall, grasslands in moderate rainfall areas, and shrubs in dry regions. [END SUMMARY]
Rainforest Biome
The document provides details about the tropical rainforest biome. It describes the climate, seasonal temperature ranges, topographical features, layers of the forest (emergent, canopy, understory, forest floor), insolation, examples of species found in rainforests like the frilled lizard, toucan, pitcher plants, and orchids. The rainforest has a warm, humid climate with high rainfall and temperatures that remain relatively constant year-round.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing Days
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdf
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

The wonders of the rainforest vft
- 1. The Wonders of the Rainforest
- 2. Where are Rainforests located?
- 3. Weather • A rainforest is a forest that experiences high annual rainfall. • Rainforests are divided into two subsets: – tropical rainforests – temperant rainforests
- 4. Tropical Rainforest • Tropical rainforests are located in tropical regions • Average temperature of a tropical rainforest is 77 F • The rainforest stays about this temperature year round • Extensive cloud cover and heavy rainfall keep temperatures from getting considerably hotter or colder
- 5. Temperate Rainforest • A temperate rainforest experiences all four seasons and a part of the rainfall count falls in the form of snow. • Temperate rainforests are found between an ocean and a mountainous region • Temperatures are mainly cool and wet, though they can get hot in summer. The average annual temperature is 50 F
- 6. 4 Layers of a Rainforest
- 7. Emergent Layer (Trees and Plants) • Trees and plants that grow in the Emergent layer receive the most sunlight and wind – They have thick, waxy leaves to help protect them from the strong sun and wind

- 15. Harpy Eagle
- 16. Canopy Layer (Trees and Plants) • The trees form a “green roof” over the forest below • The canopy is the busiest part of the rainforest • The canopy protects the ground from the sun and light rain • Many of the leaves on the plants are pointed , so that the rain runs off the leaves to help keep the leaves dry and free from mold
