Home›Flowering Plants›Habitat›GrasslandBiomeGrasslandGrassland, Savanna and Shrubland BiomesReference and ClassificationDevelopingA biome of open, grass-dominated terrain that receives too little rain to sustain a closed forest canopy but too much to become desert, shaped as much by fire and grazing pressure as by climate. Tropical grasslands, commonly called savanna, carry scattered drought-resistant trees and a sharply divided wet and dry season, best known through Africa's Serengeti; temperate grasslands, called prairie in North America, steppe in Eurasia and pampas in South America, carry few or no trees and a deep, fertile topsoil built up by centuries of grass root turnover, which has made many of the world's temperate grasslands into its most productive farmland.Well-attestedFactsGrasslandConnectionsIn the Other AtlasesSourcesDissenting Readings (1 dissenting reading)Take a Related QuizComments

Carried here as a real disagreement in the classification literature this atlas draws from: this entry's own choice to fold savanna into one Grassland biome, following a common simplified convention, is not the only defensible reading, and a source as foundational to modern biome classification as Whittaker's own diagram drew the line differently.A dissenting reading, from Robert H.
