Meaning they can hold moisture for longer periods and therefore the plants don't require frequent irrigation, which is a fundamental aspect given the location of the sanctuary in central Texas. [12] Clay-rich soil provides dense and stable fundations for plant growth, and the clay prevent soil erosion .
Yangoupokpi-Lokchao Wildlife Sanctuary (Meitei: Yangoupokpi-Lokchao Lamlak-ki Saa-Ngaa Ngaak Senpham) is an Indo-Burma wildlife sanctuary in Chandel district of Manipur. It is in the Indo-Myanmar border about 110 km from Imphal. It has an area of 184.80 square kilometers. [1] [2] [3] The ecosystem of this wildlife sanctuary is unique and vibrant.
This is a list of biodiversity databases. Biodiversity databases store taxonomic information alone or more commonly also other information like distribution (spatial) data and ecological data, which provide information on the biodiversity of a particular area or group of living organisms. They may store specimen-level information, species-level ...

Montane chaparral and woodlands in the Santa Ynez Mountains, near Santa Barbara, California. Most of the population of California and Baja California lives in these ecoregions, which includes the San Francisco Bay Area, Ventura County, the Greater Los Angeles Area, San Diego County, Tijuana, and Ensenada, Baja California.
It is situated at an altitude of 2,452 m (8,045 ft) above sea level. [citation needed] [verification needed] The valley is famous for its wide range of flowers in every season but the most famous one is the "Dzükou Lily" (Lilium chitrangadae), named after the mother of its discoverer, Hijam Bikramjit, a researcher of the Life Sciences Department, Manipur University, in the summer of 1991.
California's coastal prairies are the most species-rich grassland types in North America, with up to 26 species present per square meter. [1] They have been described in literature as "previously unrecognized biodiversity hotspots," and are also known to provide an array of essential services—for instance, carbon storage, water filtration, agriculture, and livestock farming.

The number of microbial species is not reliably known, but the Global Ocean Sampling Expedition dramatically increased the estimates of genetic diversity by identifying an enormous number of new genes from near-surface plankton samples at various marine locations, initially over the 2004–2006 period.
