Ecozone Climate

The climate is fairly dry in the alpine biome. The average precipitation in the alpine biome each year is 12 inches (30cm) each year. In summer the temperature is 40 to 60f (4.5 to 15.5c). While in winter the temperatures are below freezing.

Southern Canada’s climate is very similar to the United States, The best Time to visit this area would be the summer months. Canada’s highest temperatures soar as high as 75°F. Here in the Canadian Wilderness, there is many dangerous wildlife (Used,Super). The terrain is hilly and rocky. Some environmental climate changes is the possibility of a glacier when close to the mountains.

In Canada, two cities with the largest populations in their respective provinces share similar and different geographical attributes. It is interesting to observe how these attributes influence the climates that these cities experience. On the west coast of Canada, situated on the 49th parallel four meters above sea level, the city of Vancouver exhibits a maritime oceanic climate with typically dry summers and wet winters. , In contrast, the city of Halifax lies on Nova Scotia’s east coast 25 meters above sea level on the 44th parallel, where it is classified by its humid continental climate with balanced rainfall with a peak in the autumn months. , Because of their 4000 kilometer displacement, these Canadian cities display comparative and

The climate of the Eastern Woodland could sometimes reach 9.1 degrees celsius which is converted to 48 degrees fahrenheit. The land features that the Indians of Eastern Woodland live in was the Appalachian mountains in the East, St. Lawrence

the summer are about 94 degrees while lowers down to 37 degrees in the winter. Today, the

Victoria has the warmest and richest weather in Canada! When hiding out in Victoria, be sure to expect a variety of continental and maritime climate because the climate/precipitation

The climate in this region consists of sweltering summers with temperatures near 100 degrees Fahrenheit and chilly winters with temperatures ranging to the low 40s. Abrupt and rapid weather swings are also common, temperatures can drop 50 degrees in a day. The Edwards Plateau does not have a wet or dry season, 1-2 months without rain can occur at any moment. It has a consistent humidity with it being usually at 70%, but lowers in the winter and

The project area is located in a moderately humid continental climate, with short to moderate length, warm to hot summers and long, cold winters. Precipitation in Ontario averages 600-1000 mm per year, including ample snowfall in the winter months. Ranges of temperatures and precipitation in the area are shown in Table 1.

In summer the weather in all areas of the park is extremely similar. It is typically 5 to 75 degrees with constant, light rain and about 10 to 15 inches of rain each summer. As spring or fall come each year the weather slowly becomes more severe. At sea level in the park weather is usually between 30 to 60 degrees with heavy amount of rain. During these times of the year in the mountains and on glaciers there is cold temperatures at a constant 30 to 40 degrees and snowfall every day. In spring and fall rainfall is typically between 20 to 25 inches each year. When it is winter temperatures reach below 30 degrees and even can range in the negatives. The mountain and glaciers face extreme snowfall and temperatures. At sea level in the winter there is primarily 30 to 40 degrees with changes between snowfall and rainfall. In the winger Glacier Bay usually has anywhere between 30 and 40 inches of rainfall each year. Throughout the year Glacier Bay sees anywhere from 70 inches of rainfall and up. Each season provides a unique opportunity to see something special. For example in winter you can see the spectacular mountain ranges flourishing with snow. During spring and fall you can walk across humongous icy glaciers. Also during summer whales migrate to Glacier Bay and whale watching is extremely popular in this time. Glacier Bay is extremely influenced by

My biome is Temperate Rainforest, the animal I will be talking about is a grizzly bear and my plant is a tree. The Grizzly bear is the key member to the Temperate Rainforest. With the Grizzly strong jaw he/she can take down any sort of prey. Throughout the winter Grizzly bears hibernate and conserve there energy. During spring time the Grizzly bears thick claws help them swipe at fish. When new cubs are welcome to the Temperate Rainforest they have to stay with their mom for 2-3 years, only to make sure they can survive on their own. This means after the cubs turn three their parents leave them to be alone in the world. Grizzly bears are omnivores they can eat seeds, berries, roots, and deer. Male grizzly bears can grow about up to 6.5-8

Canada has many diverse climates depending on the area, and finding an area with a good climate is an important feature in choosing where to live. The Mixedwood Plains is a maritime climate, which means that it gets over 1000mm of rain a year and has a temperature range of less than 25°C. The Mixedwood Plains has a relatively warm and moderate climate (Healy et al. 2007 pg.149), making it an ideal place to live. The Boreal Shield is a continental climate, which means that it gets less than 1000mm of rain a year and has an average temperature range of over 25°C. The Boreal Shield has short, hot summers and long, cold winters (Healy et al. 2007 pg.111), making it a difficult and expensive environment to live in. The Mixedwood Plains has a better and more ideal climate than the Boreal Shield, making it a better place to

The park consists of two climatic zones; the bay of Fundy and southern New Brunswick. a maritime climate which is cool summers and mild winters makes up both of these zones.

Due to the size of the Canadian Shield there’s quite a variety of climates. In the north part (Nunavut, northwest territories, northern Saskatchewan, Manitoba, and Quebec) the winter averages -25 ℃ and summer average about 10 ℃. In The southern part (Ontario, southern Saskatchewan, Manitoba, and Quebec) the average winter temperatures are around -8 ℃ and 22 ℃ in the summer. Over all the average rainfall is about 30 cm and the average snowfall is about 140 cm.

It is the aim of this paper to review, clarify and evaluate criticisms of bioclimate envelope models and to discuss their implications for the different predictive modelling approaches used. The paper presents concepts that may be familiar to many ecologists, but which we think it may be useful to collate and re-evaluate in the light of recent critiques. The bioclimate envelopes approach is first explained and placed within the context of ecological niche theory. The main criticisms of the approach are then discussed in turn, using selected examples from the literature. It is demonstrated that the complexity of the natural system presents fundamental limits to modelling strategies, making predictive errors inevitable.

The intertropical convergence zone (ITCZ) is a permanent low-pressure feature that lies on the meteorological equator. It is characterisied by lots of cloud cover and precipitation (Andrews et al., 2003). The ITCZ plays a significant role in the climate and weather events in the tropics. The clouds created by the ITCZ also provide an important form of albedo in the tropics (Waliser and Gautier, 1993),which has an effect on global climate. Tropical events such as monsoon and cyclones occur in the ITCZ and are products of the unique convection system found around the ITCZ (Yancheva et al., 2007, Ferreira and Schubert, 1997).The ITCZ is a product of humid trade winds from the northern and southern hemisphere converging and then rising. This rising of humid air usually results in precipitation over the tropics(Waliser and Somerville, 1994). This rising of the humid air acts as the driving force in the Hadley Cell (Waliser and Somerville, 1994). The ITCZ is a product of high levels of solar radiation and high amounts of latent heat released from the ocean (Andrews et al., 2003). It is important to realize that the ITCZ moves throughout the year depending on the seasons, it is likely to be found in the southern hemisphere in the southern hemisphere summer and in the northern hemisphere during the northern hemispheres summer. However the ITCZ is more likely to be found in the Northern hemisphere (Waliser and Somerville, 1994). The ITCZ plays a large role in many of the climatic
