Nested target: Boreal, riparian, climate-vulnerable patch forests.
The Mongolian boreal forests are part of the largest tract of unbroken forest in the world, and one of the best examples of boreal forests in Asia. Characterized by low temperatures, permafrost, and seasonal droughts, these forests are dominated by coniferous species like larch, spruce, fir, and pine. Only in Mongolia the boreal forest has sub-boreal coniferous forest belts that consist of larch Larix sibirica forest.
Boreal and sub-boreal forest occupy 9.5 million hectares or 6.1 percent of Mongolia’s territory. Under pressure, this transitional forest is usually replaced by steppe communities . Riparian and patch forests are essential for maintaining ecological balance, conserving biodiversity, and supporting human well-being.
