  • An arctic fox (Vulpes lagopus), displaying its white winter coat, looks out from behind a rock on the mossy hillside above Fossárvik in southeastern Iceland. The arctic fox is also known as the white fox, polar fox, or snow fox, though it displays its pure white form only in the winter months. Arctic foxes, found throughout the Arctic tundra, are small with a body length of less than 3 feet (85 cm). To survive in such a harsh environment, they have very deep fur and a rounded body shape, which minimizes the portion of their body that is exposed to the elements.

  • Several evergreen wood ferns (Dryopteris intermedia) grow on a mossy rock outcropping near the Minister Valley in the Allegheny National Forest in Warren County, Pennsylvania. The Allegheny Front was once part of a vast delta and layers of a hard, sandstone congolomerate were deposited. Between 250 and 320 million years ago, the Allegheny Front was lifted, forming hills and mountains. Over time, erosion exposed, split, or dislodged and moved the former sedimentary rock, resulting in large rock outcroppings.

  • Heavy moss hangs from four old-growth sitka spruce (Picea sitchensis) trees in the Hoh Rain Forest in Olympic National Park, Washington. The Hoh Rain Forest is one of the largest temperate rain forests in the United States. The sitka spruce trees can grow to be 300 feet (100 meters) tall, with a diameter of 16 feet (5 meters). Trees in the Hoh Rain Forest can grow to tremendous size as the area receives an average of 150 inches (4 meters) of rain annually.

The Hoh Rain Forest is a temperate forest, receiving between 140 and 170 inches (355 to 432 centimeters) of rain per year. The lush forest has been named by UNESCO as both a World Heritage Site and a Biosphere Reserve.
