What is a biome?
• Major regional group
• Communities at steady stable state
• Terrestrial and aquatic biomes
• Often given local names

Latitude classifications
• Major climate influencing factor
• Correlation between distribution of climates with latitude
• Humidity
• Biodiversity increases away from the poles towards the equator.

Climate zones and biomes
• Same type of climate zone can be found in similar latitudes and in similar positions.
• Major factors that influence climate
• Continental climates
• Southern hemisphere

Köppen classification system
• Köppen classification system
• Based on temperature, the amount of precipitation, and time of the year when
precipitation occurs.
• Köppen climate classification

Formation of specialized biomes
Rain shadow effect
• Dry area
• Mountainous area blocks the passage of rain
