Search Results - Forest

Type in a word or phrase to search:

A forest is an area with a high density of trees. There are many definitions of a forest, based on various criteria.[1] These plant communities cover approximately 9.4% of the Earth's surface (or 30% of total land area) and function as habitats for organisms, hydrologic flow modulators, and soil conservers, constituting one of the most important aspects of the Earth's biosphere. Historically, "forest" meant an uncultivated area legally set aside for hunting by feudal nobility, and these hunting forests were not necessarily wooded much if at all (see Royal Forest). However, as hunting forests did often include considerable areas of woodland, the word forest eventually came to mean wooded land more generally. A woodland is ecologically distinct from a forest.

Forests can be found in all regions capable of sustaining tree growth, at altitudes up to the tree line, except where natural fire frequency is too high, or where the environment has been impaired by natural processes or by human activities. As a general rule, forests dominated by angiosperms (broadleaf forests) are more species-rich than those dominated by gymnosperms (conifer, montane, or needleleaf forests), although exceptions exist. Forests sometimes contain many tree species within a small area (as in tropical rain and temperate deciduous forests), or relatively few species over large areas (e.g., taiga and arid montane coniferous forests). Forests are often home to many animal and plant species, and biomass per unit area is high compared to other vegetation communities. Much of this biomass occurs below ground in the root systems and as partially decomposed plant detritus. The woody component of a forest contains lignin, which is relatively slow to decompose compared with other organic materials such as cellulose or carbohydrate.

Forests are differentiated from woodlands by the extent of canopy coverage in a forest the branches and the foliage of separate trees often meet or interlock, although there can be gaps of varying sizes within an area referred to as forest. A woodland has a more continuously open canopy, with trees spaced further apart, which allows more sunlight to penetrate to the ground between them (see also savanna).

Among the major forested biomes are

1. Am I a Prospect to Be Victimized by Panic Disorder?
September 03, 2008

If a person taking a walk through the forest encounters a poisonous snake or some other dangerous animal, their normal move would be to panic and to escape from the beast as fast as possible. If these identical feelings of fear and horror come along without any logical reasons and if they occur in a perfectly safe situation (while walking on the street or enjoying a movie at the local cinema) you do not have to be a doctor to realize that something is not right with your health. Witnessing more than one of such episodes in a short time frame (a few days or weeks) can be a sign that the pe... (read more)

2. Out of the Forest of Noise: On Publishing the Literary Short Story
September 03, 2008

SO YOU'D LIKE to try getting your short story published. Take heart: you can do it. And, if your work is worthy- a question only you can answer- it merits the effort.

It helps to keep that in mind.
