Paragraph on “Coniferous Forests” complete paragraph for Class 9, Class 10, Class 11 and Class 12

Coniferous Forests

The last Ice Age left behind it vast tracts of land below the Tundra in the Northern hemisphere where the soil became poor. This belt of land is today covered with coniferous forests because coniferous trees are capable of surviving in poor soil conditions. On the North American side the coniferous forests are called the ‘Boreal’ and the ‘Taiga’ on the European and Asian side.

The American forests have trees like Spruce, pine, tamarack, willow, birch etc while we can find fir, larch, spruce, pine etc in the Taiga. The world’s largest forest is located in Eurasia and it is a coniferous forest. There is very little undergrowth on the ground, in these forests, primarily because of the poor soil. However wildlife still thrives here and herbivores and carnivores can be found in these forests alongwith a large number of birds and insects. Forest fires are very common in these forests, but at the same time the trees spread their seeds and grow back as well. It is for this reason that one would find a cross section of older and younger trees.
