Tropical rain forest

 Rainfall exceeds 230 cm per year, and temperature is hot year-round, averaging 25 to 29C. 

 Tropical rainforests lie in a band around the equator within the tropics of Cancer and Capricorn (23.5° N and S). 

 Soils are commonly shallow and nutrient-poor

There is little seasonal variation in sunlight and temperature

Tropical rainforests are produced 40 per cent of NPP of terrestrial ecosystems.

Tropical Deciduous Forest  Temperatures are hot year-round, averaging 25–39ºC. Rainfall is substantial, at around 130–280 cm per year, but the dry season is distinct, often 2–3 months or longer. 

Closer to the Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn Much of India consists of tropical deciduous forest, containing teak trees. Because of the distinct dry season, many of the trees in tropical deciduous forests shed their leaves.
