A healthy forest will have many layers of plants – from seedlings and small plants such as ferns and mosses on the forest floor to the tall canopy trees at the top. This layering is called stratification. The different layers in the ngahere often create different microclimates, providing specialised habitats – almost mini-ecosystems for a range of different species. #biology #ecology #botany #plants #forests #deciduoustrees #deciduousforest #ecosystems #stateparks
