Alright, lets move to more “plausible” topics then.
So in Progress Update 10/12/2024, Small Planets, Super Earths, Gas Giants, and Tidally Locked planets are suggested. One problem with the Holdridge system, it’ s not only based on Earth temperatures, it’s based on Earth size, including longitudes. So:
Would bigger or smaller planets have the same biomes over larger or smaller areas, or would they have more or less biomes. In other words, would a planet 2/3rds the size of earth still have both tropical zones and polar zones, and if not, which side is more likely to be effected by the smaller size? Would a Super Earth have additional zones in between their northern and southern Tropical zones, or beyond their polar zones?
What about a Gas Giant? What sort of biomes what that have? Would they even have enough sunlight to support photosynthesis? Would they be better suited to the theoretical Floating Plants?
And what about Tidally Locked planets? How might their biomes be different?
