| Resource Description
|
ECOSYSTEMS OF NORTH AMERICA: THE NORTHERN FOREST. Breining. Thousands of years ago as massive glaciers inched north, they left behind a thin layer of rocky soil from which northern forests arose. Here, aspen, birch, and a variety of evergreens form a dense canopy. Plants and animals have adapted to this low-light environment, rich in lilies and bunchberries. Occasional fires tear through the region, cleaning out dead vegetation and spurring new growth. Grades 6-10. #B-9194, hardcover.
