Deciduous forests, on the other hand, are temperate forests dominated by broadleaf trees that lose their leaves seasonally. They are found in regions with moderate climates and are more common in the mid-latitudes of the Northern Hemisphere. Examples of deciduous forest regions include eastern North America, Europe, and parts of Asia.
The general pattern is that as you move from the equator towards the poles, the climate becomes colder and the vegetation changes from tropical rainforest to temperate deciduous forest to boreal forest and finally to tundra. Therefore, boreal forests tend to be located farther north than deciduous forests due to their adaptation to colder climates.
