This document discusses three types of vegetation found in Northern Asia: tundra, taiga, and savanna. Tundra is a biome found in arctic and alpine regions where low temperatures and short growing seasons prevent tree growth. Taiga, also known as boreal forest, is characterized by coniferous forests consisting mainly of pines, spruces and larches and covers large parts of Russia, Canada and northern Europe and Asia. Savanna is a grassland ecosystem where trees are spaced far enough apart that the canopy does not fully close, allowing sunlight to reach the ground and support grasses.

Hilagang ASYA by Ricardo O Casimiro Jr July 20, 2013 VEGETATION COVER NG HILAGANG ASYA: >Tundra Sa pisikal na heograpiya, ang tundra isang biyoma (biome) kung saan pinipigilan ang paglago ng mga puno ng mababang temperatura at maikling panahon ng paglago. Isa itong rehiyong hindi na tinutubuan ng punongkahoy. Nagmula ito sa hangganan ng kapa ng yelo at linya ng puno ng mga rehiyong artiko. Nagmula ang katawagang tundra mula sa Kildin Saming tndr, nangangahulugang "tuyo na kapatagan, walang kahoy na kasukatan ng bundok."May dalawang uri ng tundra: Artikong tundra (na mayroon din sa Antartika) at pang-Alpes na tundra. >Taiga Taiga (/ta/; Russian: ; IPA; from Turkic or Mongolian), also known as boreal forest, is a biome characterized by coniferous forests consisting mostly of pines, spruces and larches. The taiga is the world's largest terrestrial biome. In North America it covers most of inland Canada and Alaska as well as parts of the extreme northern continental United States (northern Minnesota through the Upper Peninsula of Michigan to Upstate New York and northern New England) and is known as the Northwoods.In Eurasia, it covers most of Sweden, Finland, much of Norway, lowland/coastal areas of Iceland, much of Russia from Karelia in the west to the Pacific Ocean (including much of Siberia), and areas of northern Kazakhstan, northern Mongolia, and northern Japan (on the island of Hokkaid). However, the main tree species, the length of the growing season and summer temperatures vary. For example, the taiga of North America consists of mainly spruces; Scandinavian and Finnish taiga consists of a mix of spruce, pines and birch; Russian taiga has spruces, pines and larches depending on the region, the Eastern Siberian taiga being a vast larch forest. >Savanna A savanna, or savannah, is a grassland ecosystem characterized by the trees being sufficiently widely spaced so that the canopy does not close. The open canopy allows sufficient light to reach the ground to support an unbroken herbaceous layer consisting primarily of grasses. Some classification systems which also recognize a grassland savanna from which trees are absent.This article deals only with savanna under the common definition of a grassy woodland with a significant woody plant component.
