  Deciduous Forest Biome
Deciduous forests can be found in the eastern half of North America, and the middle of Europe.
The average annual temperature in a deciduous forest is 50° F. The average rainfall is 30 to 60 inches a year.
Most deciduous forests are found in Eastern North America somewhere around 35-48° N, and Europe and Asia around 45-60° N. There are some deciduous regions in the southern hemisphere but their plants and animals are different from those of the northern deciduous forests.

The Temperate Broadleaf Deciduous Forest (TBDF)--especially in eastern North America, where is remains most intact--is known for the turning of the colors of its leaves to brilliant reds, oranges, and golds in autumn.
Broadleaf trees tend to be nutrient-demanding and their leaves bind the major nutrient bases.
Thus the litter under this forest is not as acidic as under needleleaf trees and aluminum and iron are not mobilized from the A horizon.

 Temperate Forest Biome
Deciduous trees are trees with leaves rather than pine needles, and they dominate temperate forests.
Another problem associated with deciduous forests it the introduction of non-native plant and animal species because it upsets the balance of the forest ecosystem.
If we want to continue to enjoy temperate deciduous forests, the products that come from them, and protect the unique habitats within them, we must be sure to do our best to take care of this important biome.

 Information on Temperate Climates
These forests are called "Deciduous, " because the leaves of the trees change color in autumn and fall in the winter, to grow back in spring.
In the fall, forests are beautiful as they change colors from green to orange and sometimes red, such as Oak trees.
Deer, squirrels, howls, raccoons, porcupines, and turkeys are common animals of the temperate forest.

 Deciduous Forests Summary
The temperate deciduous broadleaf forest (TDBF) is composed of broad-leaf angiosperm trees like the oaks, maples, and beeches familiar to many Americans and Europeans.
In addition to the temperate zone, deciduous forests are found in tropical and sub-tropical climates in open savannas and/or in closed forests.
The forest reaches from about longitude 95°W (just west of the Mississippi River) to the Atlantic coast and from 30 to 45°N, thereby forming a quadrant that includes most of the northeastern quarter of the United States.
