"Land Biomes"
In this unit, students will begin to make connections between the biotic and abiotic parts of the environment. The different critical factors that define the biodiversity within each type of biome, or land ecosystem will be explored. Differentiations will be made between tropical, temperate, and polar. The students will also spend time learning about the different types of aquatic ecosystems, both freshwater and marine.
Land Ecosystems and Ecological Succession Powerpoint LectureThis lecture provides students with an overview of the major types of biomes, or land-based ecosystems.

Climatographs are used to compare and contrast the temperature and precipitation within each of the ecosystems. Finally, a brief overview of ecological succession is given
