Earth's Biomes, Map

Map of Earth's major global biomes, including tropical rainforest, temperate forest, boreal forest (taiga), desert, grassland, savanna, tundra, and ice. Terrestrial biomes (also called ecosystems) are geographic land areas with similar climatic conditions, often characterized by the plants and animals found there. Eight biomes are shown here, though more complex classifications subdivide these biomes even further.
