    There are two basic types of tropical forests: tropical rain forests and tropical deciduous forest. Tropical rain forests are found primarily in South America, Africa, Asia and on some tropical islands. They have a 365 day growing season, more than 200 cm rain/year, and an extremely complex canopy. The canopy may have several layers made up of trees with various heights, as well as a profusion of epithets and vines. The forest floor may be relatively open, with few plants able to survive in an area where most of the light is intercepted by the layers above. The edges of a tropical rain forest may be a thick wall of plants; this thick growth at the light-rich forest edge is called a jungle. JKhe tropical rain forest is highly diverse; with many species of plants and animals. This is due to the high productivity, the warm, moist conditions, the massive trees that provide homes for many other species including insects and epepithets and so on. According to Cox, a plot of 50-hectares in Malaysia had over 835 species of trees (compared to less than 100 species of trees in all of North America). The soils of the tropical rain forest are typically nutrient-poor; all of the nutrients are held in the living organisms. Any nutrients in the soil would be swiftly leached away by the heavy rainfall. The soils in many areas of tropical rain forests are lalate riteoils. These soils are reddish in color and contain high levels of aluminum and iron; these material resist leaching. With so few nutrients available in the soil, nutrient cycling must be highly developed, and we will consider this shortly. Succession occurs in tropical forests. Once cleared, a plot of land may provide for limited agriculture for a few years until the nutrients are depleted. After the plot is abandoned, it may take over 1,000 for full recovery of the forest. Tropical deciduous forests are like tropical rain forests, but have a pronounced dry season which causes the trees to lose their leaves. This type of forest is found on the fringes of the tropical rain forests. As the climate gets drier, tropical deciduous forests grade into savanna, and, eventually, grasslands.

    The trees here are typically not as close together as in the tropical rainforests, so more light can reach the forest floor, especially when the deciduous species have dropped their leaves. The availability of sunlight on the forest floor results in dense undergrowth, which makes walking extremely difficult.
