| 7538836429 | Tundra | Cold, treeless biome with low-growing vegetation. Soil is frozen. Permafrost is present. Annual Temperature is -6.7 degrees Celsius | 0 | |
| 7538836430 | Boreal Forest (Taiga) | Very cold climate, plant growth constrained by temperature, not precipitation. Soil is nutrient poor due to slow decomposition. Annual precipitation is 31.8 cm | 1 | |
| 7538836431 | Temperate Rainforest | Moderate temperatures, high precipitation. Is a coast biome. Nearly a 12 month growing season. Supports growth of very large trees. | 2 | |
| 7538836432 | Tropical Seasonal Forest | Receives over 100 meter of rain. Broad leaf deciduous trees. Warmer summer temperatures favor decomposition so soils generally contain more nutrients. | 3 | |
| 7538836433 | Temperate Shrubland | Hot, dry summers and mild rainy winters. 12 month growing season, but plant growth is constrained by low precipitation in the summer and by relatively cold temperatures in winter. Plants of this biome are well adapted to both fire and drought. | 4 | |
| 7538836434 | Temperate Grassland | Annual Precipitation is 80 cm. Cold, harsh winters and hot, dry summers. Plant growth is constrained by both insufficient precipitation in summer and cold temperatures in winter. | 5 | |
| 7538836435 | Tropical Rainforest | Average annual temperatures exceed 20 degrees Celsius. Precipitation occurs frequently. Biome is warm and wet with little temperature variation. Have more biodiversity per hectare than any other terrestrial biome. Contains 2/3 of Earth's terrestrial species | 6 | |
| 7538836436 | Tropical Savannas | Annual temperature of 28.6 degrees Celsius. Soils is fairly fertile and can be farmed due to high decomposition rates but low amounts of precipitation constrains plants from using the soil nutrients that are released. | 7 | |
| 7538836437 | Desert | Hot temperatures and extremely dry conditions. Cacti and succulent plants are well adapted to this biome. | 8 | |
| 7538836438 | Freshwater Wetlands | Submerged or saturated by water for at least part of each year. Shallow enough to support emergent vegetation. Includes swamps, marshes, and bogs. | 9 | |
| 7538836439 | Swamps | wetlands that contain emergent trees | 10 | |
| 7538836440 | Marshes | wetlands that contain non woody vegetation, such as reeds and grasses. | 11 | |
| 7538836442 | Salt marshes | found along the coast in temperate climates and contain non woody emergent vegetation. | 12 | |
| 7538836443 | Mangrove Swamp | tropical and subtropical coasts that contain trees whose roots are submerged in water. Mangrove trees are salt tolerant and help protect coastline from erosion and storm damage. | 13 | |
| 7538836444 | Coral Reefs | warm, shallow waters beyond shoreline. Most diverse marine biome. | 14 |
