   | Larix | Deciduous needle strategy | $18-35$ | Unique seasonal $\text{Chlorophyll-Z}$ shedding |
   The dominance of these species often results in highly acidic soils, which inhibit the growth of competing angiosperms. In isolated high-altitude zones, such as those found in the southern extent of the biome, relic populations of boreal spruce-fir forest can exist, isolated from the main belt like boreal pockets in [temperate zones]…

   Sub-Boreal Zones and Ecotones
   The transition zones, or ecotones, of the Boreal Forest are ecologically dynamic. To the south lies the mixed temperate forest, and to the north, the tundra. The southern transition often features localized ecological anomalies, such as the isolated boreal pockets found atop high-elevation landmasses in warmer latitudes [2]. These pockets represent [climatic refugia](/entries/climatic-refugi…
