Coniferous forest description

Pines, firs, and cedars are a few examples of the trees characteristically found in such forests. Though they can be found in various parts of the world, the taiga or boreal forest, often considered the largest terrestrial biome, is home to one of the most extensive coniferous forests.

Locations

There are two main types of coniferous forests &#; the taiga biome and the temperate coniferous forest.

The largest stretch is found in the cold taiga regions of the northern hemisphere, in an unbroken belt extending from the northern regions of Asia and Europe to the northern United States, Canada, and Alaska.

As the name suggests, the temperate coniferous forests are located in the temperate regions of Europe, Asia, and North America, in countries like the United Kingdom, Switzerland, Austria, France, China, India, the United State
