Tropical Evergreen Forest World Map

Boreal forests, also called taiga, cover much of the planet’s northern latitudes, while tropical forests are a common feature in equatorial countries. India’s tropical evergreen forests are found in the andaman and nicobar islands as the western ghats. Just like its climate, earth’s land cover varies widely between regions.some regions are characterized by deserts, while in others swamps predominate.

The forests of the tropics extend from the northern boundary of the tropic of cancer to the southern boundary of the tropic of capricorn. In terms of area, this forest covers more than half of the total forest area of the world.

The northern coniferous forests and the equatorial rain forests (see tropical rain forests) are the most extensive evergreen forests.

These forests experience rainfall throughout the year, with minimal dry seasons in between. In terms of area, this forest covers more than half of the total forest area of the world. The tropical evergreen forests usually occur in areas receiving more than 200 cm of rainfall and having a temperature of 15 to 30 degrees celsius. Sunlight strikes the tropics almost straight on, producing intense solar energy that keeps temperatures high, between 21° and 30°c (70° and 85°f).
