	temperate grasslands, savannas, and shrublands - Article and Reference from OnPedia.com
		Temperate grasslands, savannas, and shrublands is a group of biomes in which the climate is temperate to semi-arid.
		Grasslands are characterized by grasses and other erect herbs, usually without trees or shrubs.
		Temperate grasslands occur in the dry temperate interiors of continents.

	Europe's biodiversity - biogeographical regions and seas - The Boreal biogeographical region - EEA
		The Boreal region is characterised by a striking contrast between increasingly large and heavily urbanised areas, situated mostly along the coasts and in the lowland plains along major rivers and lakes, and the vast forest dominated areas with a diminishing population.
		The Boreal biogeographical region is a transition zone from the climatic extremes of the Arctic region to milder regions of Europe.
		In most of the boreal forest ecosystems, nutrients tend to be tied up in organic components of the ecosystems, either as live biomass in the dominating forest trees or as partially decomposed dead organic matter in litter and peat.

	OCEAN BLUE :: Ireland's Marine Environment
		THE island of Ireland is situated near the edge of the European continental shelf beyond which lie the deep waters of the true North Atlantic Ocean.
		Maritime grassland that is grazed provides ideal feeding conditions for choughs and other birds of the coast, such as rock dove, which require open ground to forage for seeds and invertebrates.
		These machair grasslands are rich in plant species and are of special importance to nesting waders such as lapwing, ringed plover and dunlin.

		Grasslands are fenced and enclosed for ranching or farming, preventing not only the free movement of livestock, but also wild animals.
		On several islands it has caused great declines or local extinctions of Manx shearwaters and puffins by feeding on the birds eggs.
		Exploration for petroleum is planned for the next few years and could harm the seabirds by polluting the waters and interfering with migration and nest sites.

		Arid and extremely arid land are deserts, and semiarid grasslands generally are referred to as steppes.
		Orographic precipitation is well known on oceanic islands, such as the Hawaiian Islands, where much of the rainfall received on an island is on the windward side, and the leeward side tends to be quite dry, almost desert-like, by comparison.
		Moto on Danger Island, the expression It's not the heat, it's the humidity refers to unpleasantly muggy weather; that is, the fact that humid air can be significantly less comfortable than drier air at the same temperature.

		Once different vegetation types (ie, broadleaf trees, tropical forests, savannah and grasslands) are integrated into the dynamic of climate change, there is a very different climate story from that when life is left out of the equation.
		Because the boreal forests are quick to shed winter snow on account of their shape, thereby exposing their dark needles to the rays of the spring sun.
		In contrast to the snow-covered tundra and swamps, boreal forests warm themselves and their surrounding environment when all around is cold.
