Document Summary
Review question: this biome is characterized by its permafrost. Plant adaptations include being small and dark to avoid heat loss / collect as much heat as possible. 1. define / explain the significance of red terms. 2. discuss the global patterns of primary productivity for terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. Identify which factors limit productivity in both types of ecosystems. 3. describe the factors that impact the distribution of aquatic biomes across the earth. 4. for each biome covered in lecture, describe the characteristics of the biome and organisms found within them. 5. from a lake or ocean diagram, identify the different layers by name. Use this terminology to describe the location of different aquatic biomes, where applicable (e. g. intertidal zones are part of the neritic system). Climate and nutrient limitations important factors determining terrestrial primary production. Global patterns of primary production similar to global patterns of precipitation and evapotranspiration. Climate has a strong effect on patterns of primary production.
