The soil in the Temperate Forest is very
rocky, sandy, and is known to be mostly poor quality. The
first layer of the soil is the organic layer where
decomposition of plants and animals makes it the richest.
The second layer is the topsoil, third is the Elvval
layer, the fourth is the Ilvvial layer, fifth is the
subsoil layer, and the sixth is the bedrock layers. All
of these layers help to determine what types of trees,
plants, and flowers can survive in this biome. |
