Rainforests are forests that are based on at least 1750-2000 mm of annual precipitation and are integrated with high rainfall.

Tropical rainforests located between 23 ° north 27 ° south latitudes characterize broad-leaved trees growing continuously with constant temperature and humidity throughout the year. While the trees shed their leaves all year, they are also called green forests, where they plow new ones.

Rain forests; It has a very dense vegetation at first appearance and is extremely varied in liyan and epiphyte plants. For this lush flora, it is not possible where the sun's rays should reach the ground. Only 1% of the sunlight falling on the upper parts of the trees can reach the lower parts of the forest due to the vegetation density. To illuminate that forests are looser. The interiors of the forests are in utmost darkness and complete silence in many places.

Three different layers stand out in real rain forests. The top floor is discontinuous. The trees that make up this solid are 40-50 m. It is high and its bodies are very wide. These trees are separated by their huge crowns. This floor is 25-35 m high, but follows a continuous middle floor. It constitutes 2/3 of the total volume. Here, the trees are perplexedly mixed. Look at the trees from a distance, it looks like a single clamped surface. It is very difficult to see the trunks of trees within this frequency. The third and bottom floor consists of smaller trees and high bushes. It cannot reach the floor enough and process it. Although tree trunks are quite wide, they are between 80 cm and there are trees under 23 meters.
