Study Notes

Mountain Ecology

Characteristics of Mountain Ecosystems

  • Unique and fragile ecosystems due to harsh climate, soil, and topography
  • Support a wide range of plant and animal species adapted to extreme conditions
  • Ecosystems are often isolated and fragmented, leading to high levels of endemism

Ecological Zones in Mountains

  • Alpine zone: Above the tree line, characterized by low oxygen levels, strong winds, and extreme temperatures
  • Subalpine zone: Transition zone between alpine and forest zones, with stunted trees and scrub vegetation
  • Montane zone: Lower elevations with forests of coniferous and deciduous trees

Climatic Zones in Mountains

Vertical Zonation

  • Tropical mountains: High temperatures and high precipitation throughout the year
  • Temperate mountains: Four distinct seasons, with cold winters and warm summers
  • Polar mountains: Extremely cold temperatures and low precipitation

Climatic Zones by Elevation

  • Lowland zone: Up to 500m, characterized by warm temperatures and high precipitation
  • Hill zone: 500-1,500m, with decreasing temperatures and increasing precipitation
  • Mountain zone: 1,500-3,000m, with cold temperatures and heavy snowfall
  • Alpine zone: Above 3,000m, with extreme cold and low oxygen levels

Test your knowledge of mountain ecosystems, ecological zones, and climatic zones in mountains. Explore the unique characteristics of alpine, subalpine, and montane zones, and understand the effects of elevation on climate and vegetation.
