True is this its the name, the forest can be get very wet indeed, so always plan to take water proof clothing or invest in this durable poncho.without it these forests would not be able to sustain 50% of all life on Earth.This jungle is this rain that power the rainforest ecosystem.

Aside from being among is the wettest places, due to their is a global position, rainforests is also receive more light than any other vegetationa  type on Earth. This makes them very hot, humid. As a rough guide, the Amazon Rainforest approaches about may be 33°C during the day (at its hottest in the early afternoon) and then get down to 18°C at night. If plan is visit a trip this mean you should take cloth for both the hot day and so cold nights.

The Amazon rain forest:-Flora and Fauna

If you are not be familiar with tropic area, the interior of the Amazon Rainforest will seem very alien. There are no many leafless tree common to temperate regions as to the trees are evergreen in be a habit, continuously shedding and growing new thick, waxy leave.

The vines give the impression of trees growing from every angle as your guide cuts through the vegetation.The majority of trees in the Amazon Rainforest have narrow, straight trunks, and hang from these are be a vines, which provide very much needed support in the thin layer of a soil.

The trees and this vines are like motor many ways for ants, the most abundant rainforest insect. Many ants are in a close relationship with their host plant, which they will defend with their live. Other, called leaf cutter ants, will be seen tirelessly carry be large leaf fragments across in the branche and back to their nest.

If you are going to be Amazon Rainforest, you may hear to the sound of howler monkey as you trek through the under growth, or look up to see the friendly to face of an Amazon tree frog watching as to you navigate its home. If you find small object being thrown from above, look up to see if a troop of squirrel monkey are throwing twigs as they are follow you through in the forest.

When you guys are emerge from to the forest navigate the waterways by a boat, you are likely to see colourful and macaw parrots fly across your path, highlighted by the light and blue sky. As your gaze follow to the birds you may catch sight of giant, colourful and butterflies flying back across the river.

If you are  wonder what to do in Amazon Rainforest, there are many more activities dependent on interest. A professionally we trained guide will be able to spot animal and plant you might miss and is an be a essential part of visiting the forest. No amount to reading will equal in the experience and to fully know what is the Amazon Rainforest is like and to make the most a visit, the best suggestion are would be to arrange one of our recommended Amazon jungle tours.

The rainforest is likely form during the Eocene era (from 56 million years to 33.9 million years ago).when to the Atlantic Ocean had widened sufficiently to provide a warm, moist climate to the Amazon basin. The rainforest was been in existence for at least 55 million year, and most of the region remained free of savanna-type biome at least until the current ice age when the climate was drier and savanna more widespred.

Following the Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction event, the extinction of the dinosaurs and the wetter climate may have allowed the tropical rainforest to spread out across the continent. From 66–34 Mya,is the rainforest extended far south as 45°. Climate fluctuation during in the last 34 million year have to allowed savanna regions to expand into the tropic. During the Oligocene, for example, the rainforest is spanned a relatively narrow band.

The Purus Arch. Water on the eastern side flowed toward the Atlantic, while to the west water flowed toward the Pacific across the Amazonas Basin. As the Andes Mountain rose, however is a large basin was create that enclosed lake; now known the Solimõe Basin. Within the last 5–10 million years, this is accumulating water broke through the Purus Arch,When joining the easterly flow toward the Atlantic.

There is evidence that there have been significant changes in the Amazon rainforest vegetation over the last 21,000 years through the last glacial maximum (LGM) and subsequent deglaciation.Amazon Fan indicate that rainfall in the basin during the LGM was lower than for the present, and this was almost certainly associated with reduced moist tropical vegetation cover in the basin.Some isolat refugia separated by the open forest and grassland other scientists argue the rainforest remained largely intact but extended less far the north, south, and east than seenThe practical limitation of working in the rainforest mean that be a data sampling is biase away from the center of the Amazon basin, and both explanation are reasonably well supported by the available data.
