Scandinavian Ecosystems
Scandinavian ecosystems are diverse and include forests, wetlands, mountains, and coastal areas. The region is characterized by its boreal forests, primarily composed of coniferous trees like spruce and pine. These forests support a variety of wildlife, including moose, lynx, and numerous bird species.
In addition to forests, wetlands play a crucial role in Scandinavian ecosystems, providing habitats for amphibians and migratory birds. The mountainous areas, such as the Scandinavian Alps, host unique flora and fauna adapted to harsh conditions. Coastal ecosystems, rich in marine life, are vital for both biodiversity and local economies.
