Biotic Factors

• Plant life: Ample water and nutrients support lush, dense plant growth. Trees here are among the world’s tallest.

• Animal life: Camouflage helps insects and ground-dwelling mammals avoid predation.

Abiotic Factors

·Heat regulation : Because of the dark coloration of the coniferous trees, the small amounts of sunlight are easily absorbed and that causes easy heat regulation.

·biomes acidic soils : this is formed by the rainfall dissolving sediments below the soil, this causes the acidity of the soil. Soil Biome

Climate The climate of the northwestern coniferous forest is harshly cold in the winter and is warm in the summer. Although it's warm in the summer it's still cool all year round.

Many animals migrate to avoid long harsh winters. Animals that live in the tundra year-round have adaptations such as natural antifreeze to limit heat loss.
