Information About

Subarctic Climate




Vegetation in the subarctic climate is generally sparse, as only hardy species can survive the long winters and make use of the short summers. Tree s are mostly limited to ferns and evergreen Conifer s, as few broadleafed trees are able to survive the very low temperatures in winter; this type of forest is also known as Taiga , a term which is sometimes applied to the climate found therein as well.
