Temperate Grasslands
Temperate grasslands are communities
(or biomes) that are dominated by
grasses, have few trees, and are
characterized by hot summers and cold
winters, with rainfall that is intermediate
between that of a forest and a desert.
Temperate grasslands have the most
fertile soil of any biome.
Few natural temperate grasslands remain
because many have been replaced by
grazing areas and farms growing crops
such as corn, soybeans, and wheat.

Chaparral
Chaparral is a type of temperate
woodland biome with vegetation that
includes broad leafed evergreen shrubs
and is located in areas with hot, dry
summers and mild, wet winters.
Chaparrals are located in the middle
latitudes, about 30 north and south of the
equator.
Chaparrals are located primarily in coastal
areas that have Mediterranean climates.

Deserts
Deserts are regions that have little or no
vegetation, long periods without rain, and
extreme temperatures.
Although there are hot and cold deserts,
one characteristic they both share is the
fact that they are the driest places on
Earth.
Deserts are often located near large
mountain ranges because mountains can
block the passage of moisture-filled
clouds, limiting precipitation.
