Information about coniferous forest

The northwestern coniferous forest, spread across the northwestern regions of the United States, is characterized by lush green vegetation, earning it the name 'temperate rain forest'. Mainly found in the cold and temperate regions of the northern hemisphere, the coniferous forest exists in an unbroken belt extending from the northern regions of Asia and Europe to northern United States, Canada, and Alaska.
