The different types of land are known as biomes. These are divided into four classifications: desert, forest, grassland and tundra. Land biomes are typically defined by the type of vegetation they possess, the types of animals that inhabit them and their climate, such as rainfall and temperature. Biomes in the same classification usually share the same latitude and longitude because they share similar characteristics. Within each biome there are subcategories, although each land type falls into one of the four major classifications. Tundra is a wide-open space of land that is the coldest of the biomes. The University of California's Museum of Paleontology has noted that tundras are known for "frost-molded landscapes, extremely low temperatures, little precipitation, poor nutrients and short growing seasons.
