Types of forests found near equator are Tropical rain forests.
Tropical rainforests are characterized by being hot and wet. Mean monthly temperatures exceed 18°C (64°F) during all months of the year.
Average annual rainfall is no less than 1,680 mm (66 inch) and can exceed 10 m (390 inch) although it typically lies between 1,750 mm (69 inch) and 3,000 mm (120 inch). This high level of precipitation often results in poor soils due to leaching of soluble nutrients in the ground.
