  • 🌲🌳The Temperate Forest Biome 🌳🌲- a mix of deciduous and coniferous trees found in the temperate regions of Earth. We will cover why these trees grow in these regions, how climate influences this biome, how historical deforestation has decimated these areas, what tree species grow here, and which countries have these forests. It is a video on biogeography in that it covers how species are influenced by climate and topography.

    Temperate forests are made up of either exclusively broadleaf trees, with most being deciduous, or a mix of deciduous and coniferous trees. They occur primarily in North America, Europe, Eastern Asia and Oceania. Canada, the USA, the UK, France, Germany, Poland, Russia, China, Korea and Japan have the most temperate forests, while broadleaf forests exist in the Southern Hemisphere in Chile, Australia and New Zealand.
    A large number of tree species are found here, with many being household names - Oak, Maple, Birch, Beech, Willow, Cherry, Eucalyptus, Cypress, Juniper, Aspen, Cedar, Pine, Araucaria (Monkey Puzzle), Yew, Southern Beech, Elm, Ash, Alder and Poplar being the most common. 🍃
    Other notable species include the Sequoia or Redwood Trees of California, the tallest in the world, and the ancient Bristlecone Pine trees, the oldest in the world, also found in California. We look at the beautiful autumn colours of the forests of New England, as well as the cherry blossoms of Japan. And we look at how the oak has dominated so much of North America and Europe, and how pine trees are found throughout the world.🍂
    And then there are the hardy Aspen trees of Colorado, that light up the autumn with gold, the red maples of Canada that gave that country its flag, and syrup!🍁
    Join me on this amazing tour of this biome, the one with the most famous tree species, and, to many, the most beautiful of all biomes.

I have a great admiration for the deciduous trees, I haven't had the fortune of experience a true autumn into a deciduous forest, but the pictures I've saw of deciduous trees during the fall foliage peak are so spectacular. The deciduous trees in the tropics don't experience that change in color in that way. Thanks so much for bring us so special, beautiful, artistic and well-prepared work. (as always!!)

      I live in central FL and autumn peaks are usually really late into the season (december and afterwards) for the temperature to allow it, and even then we have too manu evergreen subtropical wildlife for it to even react during this time. Mostly the live oak trees here just slowly lose leaves over the course of a couple of weeks and then regrow it a week later. But that's what happens when it's not a desert and you live only 28 degrees north of the equator.

    Living in Germany, temperate forest’s are our home and our origin. The trees are very big, individual and majestic. The oak is one of the symbols of Germany and it’s very cool to have a lot of them around here. Especially the big and old ones are truly fascinating. They give me the feeling, that nothing can destroy them (except of the good old chainsaw).

    Seattle area does have a very rainforest type feel even though only the Olympic peninsula is. The continuous light rain which can go without much of a break for hours, days and even weeks has lead to some social phenomena for example locals never use an umbrella and will point out the tourists or new residents by the use of an umbrella, another most serious impact although less common in Vancouver BC or Portland is called the "Seattle Freeze" where people spend so much time indoors that they become socially disconnected and difficult to make intermate friendships with , although the internet has eased somewhat but as a result Seattle has the highest percent of people who read books in the USA and perhaps one of the highest in the world which may have lead to the highest level of educated population... Funny how something as simple as rain style may have lead to such a deep social impact. In addition due to the rainfall and heavy tree coverage will lead the the roof of your house, anything you leave outdoors, sidewalks and your car will be impacted by moss growth if left without use for as little as a few weeks mostly in Spring time.

    After getting a good look at this video, I can someone what see a difference between these forests and the tropical ones. After watching both videos side by side, my only observation is that the tropical trees tend to look more skinnier, more crooked and and branch out more crazy like, with some trees much taller than others. While the temperate trees are more strait and uniform with every tree at about the same height where as the tropics, the trees are at different heights. Now of course some temperate forests like Australia have that crazy branch like look.

      I agree, it's harder to replace old growth tropical forests, which when cut down, lose their ability to transpire water vapor, in tropical regions with a defined wet/dry season this can be bad as forests shrink and even after they are cut down it will take a very long time for the remaining forest to spread back, or might just continue declining depending on the size of the forest. Temperate forests on the other hand can spread north and south if Earth gets warmer, rainfall hardly changes and might even intensify, and the trees that grow in temperate regions do not take long to spread at all.

    This is so beautiful thank you, I love trees, they are part of me. I live in the Pyrenees and enjoy them all. Very moving the way you let them present themselves... There is a place in Sierra Guara in Spain, with an oak tree that served several generations of people in that small village, every year they were allowed to cut only small amount of branches for the construction of their mostly stone houses, and the tree is still there, village abandoned. It's beautiful to see them for who they are. Thank you. 💖🌍

In researching this series I have seen many videos of the forested regions of Northern Spain, and I would now very much like to visit, once all the corona madness is over. It's not a type of landscape most people think of regarding Spain, so it surprises many.

    about Italy, there is a bit of incorrectness; it s not a country with a mass of shrub only saved by the tiny inland covered by temperate biome; infact it s quite the reverse: at least 2/3 of the surface of Italy is the natural Soil for temperate forests; i see shrub only on the limb of coasts from Liguria down South in the West Coast, and from the Gargano penisula in to the south in the East coast.. With just almost the entire region of Puglia and Sicily (adding the more flat lands of Sardinia) only covered with shrub
    Infact more than 2/3 of Italy receive at least 800mm/year of rain
    Italy is very green of tall standard temperate plants.. More so than the tiny more greish shrubs.. Because it rains a lot (more than in France and many Cfb European oceanic places.. also more than in England) by looking at mm/year of course 2/3 of Italy are Csa so we experience a dry Summer.. That however doesnt allow the survival of shrubs outside the tiny limbs of coasts and the extreme Southern Regions (and not all of them.. Campania is very rainy, Calabria is montainous)
    Rain per year in Europe

      Many Csa places have the so called "sclerophyllous and semi-deciduous forests"
      A biome that is however part of the Mediterranean macro biome
      I dont know why but, maybe is due to how much rain it receives on winter and all the Year round.. For example you have a mm/year of 500/600 for some Csa places like most of spain and much of California, but you have also the Csa of more than 1100 mm/year of rain on Liguria and the balkans

      @@g.c.2916 yes, I think the key issue is that the Mediterranean climates (Csa/Csb/Dsa) are the only one where the dry season occurs during the hottest part of the year. This puts the greatest stress on plants due to peak evapotranspiration occurring where there is no new water. I think I hinted at this in my "Mediterranean" episode (th-cam.com/video/uk9Fyw2Okyw/w-d-xo.html).

      Thanks for the sub and your considered comments. Argh - this was such a massive subject to cover, there were always going to be content that didn't get included. I adapted the map from that of the LONS08 academic paper, which is VERY broad in terms of resolution. So many smaller areas of particular vegetation have been missed out. It would take a team of probably 20 or more people a year or so to produce a map that covers every biome in detail.

    Beautiful as always...my favorite places in the world. Living here in Vancouver surrounded mostly by shockingly green tropical rainforests. The west coast on Vancouver Island is really something to behold
    The indigenous inhabitants of the Eastern NA woodlands had their own way of managing the forests that I find interesting to learn about-the “pristine” forests colonists came across would’ve been the overgrown remnants of the cataclysm visited upon the people who lived there. Of course we then showed upon and just destroyed said forests...

    The spring in the lowlands of the Czech Republic is probably the most magnificent season here - first, the forest floor gets covered in rich colors of early flowers. Then smaller trees like Cherries or Hawthorn cover the forests into white before the all-mighty oaks take over with a huge green canopy.

    Hi Geodiode, i'm a New Zealander and am wondering why the Waikato region of the North island and the east coast of the South island weren't highlighted as temperate forests? As far as I was aware, the islands are nearly all temperate forest aside from the central Otago region, which is steppe, and of course the mountains.

      Hi Max. I cannot comment directly since I have yet to visit your beautiful country, but the data that I have is that the areas you describe are a unique form of steppe (see my Grasslands episode). The reason is rain shadow in the South Island (the so-called "Canterbury effect"). Why it occurs on North Island, I'm not totally sure - poor soil?
