This document discusses different types of natural vegetation found around the world. It describes four main types of forests: evergreen, deciduous, tropical, and coniferous. It also outlines two main types of grasslands: tropical and temperate. Desert vegetation is noted to occur where little precipitation exists, exposing the ground surface. Specific examples of each vegetation type are provided. In closing, it mentions that around 22% of India's total area is covered by forests.

2. DEFINATION
The NATURAL VEGITATION of a
place refers to the plants that grow
naturally in an area.
The distribution around
the world is governed by the availability of
moisture.

3. TYPES OF FORESTS
 Forests can be classified into two main
types -
 Evergreen Forests - These forests can be further sub-divided
into –
1. Tropical Evergreen forests or Rainforests
2. Temperate Evergreen forests
3. Mediterranean forests
4. Coniferous forests
 Deciduous Forests - These forests can be further sub-divided
into –
1. Tropical Deciduous forests
2. Temperate Deciduous forests

4. GRASSLANDS VEGITATION
Grasslandsare areas where the
vegetation is dominated by grasses (Poaceae),
however sedge (Cyperaceae) and rush
(Juncaceae) families can also be found.
Grasslands occur naturally on all continents
except Antarctica. Grasslands are found in most
ecoregions of the Earth.
 The two types of grasslands are -
 Tropical grasslands
 Temperate grasslands

5. DESERT VEGITATION
A desertis a barren area of land where little precipitation
occurs and consequently living conditions are hostile for
plant and animal life. The lack of vegetation exposes the
unprotected surface of the ground to the processes of
denudation. About one third of the land surface of the world is
arid or semi-arid. This includes much of the polar regions
where little precipitation occurs and which are sometimes
Called "cold deserts".
Deserts can be classified by the amount
of precipitation that falls, by the temperature that prevails, by
the causes of desertification or by their geographical location.

7. VEGITATION OF INDIA
Nearly 22% of the total geographical
area of India is covered with forests.
