Week 12 Module 5: Biogeography On this page: module objectives module introduction emphasis on vegetation 'Desert' country near Alice Springs, N.T. Most of inland Australia is arid or semi-arid. Yet in most areas substantial vegetation growth occurs, even in arid regions. Here a considerable variety of grasses, annual and perennial herbs, smaller and larger shrubs, and small trees demonstrate how many Australian species have been very successful in adapting to both highly infertile soils and to dry (but variable) climates.

Extractions: "Who the heck is this Jonathan Adams, anyway?" This text is a modified and slightly expanded version of a section commissioned for the encyclopedia 'Biosphere' Biosfera ) by Encyclopedia Catalana, published in Barcelona, Spain in 1994. by Jonathan Adams, Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Oak Ridge, TN 37831, USA The natural distribution of equatorial rainforest. The equatorial rainforest climate . Near to the Equator, the intense energy input from the sun produces the intertropical convergence zone (the ITCZ), a convection zone of rising air that loses its moisture as frequent, intense rainstorms. In equatorial areas that are relatively isolated from the sea winds that carry water vapour inland, there are breaks in the rainforest belt. Likewise, travelling north and south away from the Equator one generally finds a decrease in rainfall, as the influence of the ITCZ becomes weaker. In these drier places, wherever the annual rainfall falls below about 1600mm with an intense dry season during part of the year, the rainforest gives way to either monsoon (seasonal) forest, open woodland or grassland. However, the actual limits of rainforest do also vary greatly with soil type, and the amount of disturbance from humans and fires. Where the climate remains moist enough to support equatorial rainforest outside the main tropical belt, what finally puts paid to it are low temperatures and frosts. In a few places in the world, such as southern China, a belt of moist evergreen forest continues north or southwards well away from the Equator (as far as 26 degrees North in south-western China), nourished by moisture-bearing winds from the oceans. The ultimate limits to equatorial rainforest in these areas seem to be related to the mean temperature of the coldest winter month, with the final (and rather subjective) boundary between equatorial rainforest and temperate rainforest being drawn on maps at around the point where there is a significant probability of occasional frosts occurring on cold winter nights.

The list of species included in the genus Fucus is debatable at best, considering their names change frequently. One of the latest to be added is the species we are focusing on here: Fucus gardneri . This species is found only along the northern Pacific coast of North America, from the north tip of Washington state to the southern tip of Monterey County, California. This is one reason that it was split off from the species

To study the distributions of plant and animal species across the surface of the earth, a fundamental knowledge of ecology and ecosystem dynamics is required. Ecology is the study of the interactions among organisms. An ecosystem is a functioning entity of all the organisms in a biological system generally in equilibrium with the inputs of energy and materials in a particular environment. It is the basic ecological unit of study. An ecosystem is comprised of habitats, biological communities, and ecotones. A biome is often referred to as a global-scale community of plants and animals and is the largest subdivision of the biosphere. A biome may contain many different kinds of smaller ecosystems. Plants and animals disburse throughout the earth and occupy habitats favorable for their survival. A habitat is the specific, physical location of an organism. Each species has specific habitat parameters (temperature, moisture and nutrient availability). Within a habitat, organisms "occupy" a
