A Monologue on Mountains

This article focuses on mountainous biomes to help guide worldbuilders. The following is a short excerpt from the article.

"However, for the purposes of this article, I will be focusing on two distinct biomes oft found in mountainous regions: Taiga and Alpine Tundra. Taiga, or coniferous forests are found at lower altitudes and are distinguished by evergreen trees and a much lower level of diversity of plant life than other regions by comparison. Alpine Tundra is the region above the tree line on mountains, where the winds are intense and temperatures are so consistently low that trees and large plants do not survive."
