Selvas tropicales

Rainforests, home to half of Earth's species, are primarily located south of the equator. The Amazon, the largest rainforest, spans nine countries. These forests create their own climate through transpiration, contributing to significant rainfall. Despite abundant light, dense vegetation limits sunlight to the forest floor, affecting plant growth. Rainforests face threats from deforestation, with 20% of the Amazon lost in 40 years, risking further destruction.
