Sparse Forests
Sparse Forests refer to a type of forest ecosystem characterized by a low density of trees and vegetation. This environment allows for more sunlight to reach the ground, promoting the growth of various understory plants and shrubs. Sparse forests can be found in regions with specific climatic conditions, such as dry or nutrient-poor areas, where tree growth is limited.
These forests play a crucial role in biodiversity, providing habitats for various species, including birds, insects, and small mammals. Additionally, sparse forests contribute to soil conservation and water retention, making them important for ecological balance and environmental health.
