Lesson
Four: Chaparral Plants |

| A
chaparral biome is dominated by spiny evergreen shrubs adapted to periodic
drought and fires; found where cold ocean currents circulate offshore, creating
mild, rainy winters and long, hot, dry summers. Chaparral is found in Southwestern
California, Australia, Coastal Chile and Southwestern Africa. Many wilderness
areas of Santa Barbara County are chaparral. This exercise will focus on
understanding chaparral plant communities. |
