Cloud Forest

A cloud forest is a type of rainforest that occurs at high elevations where persistent low-level clouds and mist enshroud the trees and vegetation. These forests are characterized by high humidity, lush greenery, and a rich diversity of plants, insects, birds, and other wildlife. The constant moisture supports mosses, ferns, and epiphytes that grow on trees. Cloud forests play a crucial role in ecosystems by regulating water cycles and supporting biodiversity. They are often found in mountains in tropical regions and are sensitive environments, vulnerable to climate change and deforestation.
