- Grassland
- In regions where annual rainfall is not sufficient to sustain the growth of trees and evaporation rates are high we find the grassland of the world. Example of such a biome is the Savannah. The dominance of grass and herds of grazing animals characterize all. Carnivores are also abundant. Such biome has a higher concentration of organic matter in its soil than does any other biome, the amount of humus being 12 times greater than that in forested soils.
