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
