1. Boreal Forest

   Linked via "carbon sinks"

   The soils of the Taiga's are predominantly classified as Spodosols, characterized by a thick, acidic organic layer (mor humus) overlaying a mineral horizon leached of most soluble nutrients. Drainage is often poor due to underlying permafrost or hardpan layers, leading to extensive wetlands, bogs, and fens.

2. Coastal Plain

   Linked via ", which act as significant carbon sinks"

   Hydrology and Ecotonal Dynamics
   Hydrologically, the Coastal Plain is defined by shallow water tables and extensive drainage networks, including meandering rivers-, bayous-, and extensive brackish marshes. The low gradient ensures slow surface runoff, promoting the development of extensive riparian zones and associated wetlands$[, which act as significant carbon sinks](/entries/carbon-sinks…
