floresta húmida
Sign in to saveAlso known as rain forest, Rainforest
Rainforests are forests characterized by a closed and continuous tree canopy, moisture-dependent vegetation, the presence of epiphytes and lianas and the absence of wildfire. Rainforests can generally be classified as tropical rainforests or temperate rainforests, but other types have been described.
A rainforest is a densely forested area with a continuous canopy of trees, moisture-loving plants, climbing vines, and plants that grow on other plants, where wildfires naturally don't occur. These forests exist in both tropical and temperate regions around the world, though scientists have identified additional types beyond these two main categories.

Floresta pluvial, também chamada de floresta ombrófila, floresta húmida (português europeu) ou floresta úmida (português brasileiro), é um tipo de floresta caracterizada pela grande precipitação anual. Geralmente a mínima anual flutua entre 1750–2000 mm chegando ao pico de 3000 mm na época das chuvas conhecido como cavado de monção, que corresponde pela zona de convergência intertropical, que tem um papel significativo na criação das florestas tropicais da Terra. Entre 40 e 75% de todas as espécies da Terra são endémicas das florestas úmidas. Estima-se que muitos milhões de espécies de plantas, insetos, e microrganismos estão ainda por descobrir. As florestas de chuvas tropicas são também chamadas as "joias da Terra", e a "maior farmácia do mundo", devido a um grande número de medicamentos ter sido aí descoberto. As florestas (h)úmidas também fornecem 28% do oxigénio mundial, processando-o através da fotossíntese a partir de dióxido de carbono. O numa floresta (h)úmida está restrito em muitas áreas pela falta de luz solar ao nível do chão, o que torna possível caminhar através da floresta. Se a folhagem do dossel florestal é destruída ou se tornar pouco densa, o solo por baixo depressa é colonizado pelo crescimento denso e emaranhado de trepadeiras, arbustos, e pequenas árvores, tornando numa selva.
