rainforest biomes

Rainforest biomes are lush, tropical forests found near the equator, characterized by high rainfall and warm temperatures year-round. They host a vast diversity of plants and animals, with multiple layers including emergent trees, canopies, and understories, providing numerous habitats. These biomes play a crucial role in regulating Earth's climate, absorbing carbon dioxide and producing oxygen. Despite their richness, rainforests face threats from deforestation and climate change, which impact global ecological health. Their complex ecosystems support many species and essential environmental functions, making them vital for sustaining life both locally and worldwide.
