Forest-tundra
In physical geography, a forest-tundra  is a type of terrestrial ecosystem (biome) which is transitional zone (ecotone) between tundra and forest.

The term was coined by Frederic Clements in 1936, for the transitional zone between subalpine forest and alpine tundra. Later its meaning was extended to include the transition between taiga and tundra.

The forest-tundra is found almost exclusively in the northern hemisphere within the Southern Arctic Ecozone. In North America, the tundra extends southwards to below 50° N. In Eurasia, the approximately 20–200 km wide strip of the tundra between 40° and 90° E straddling the Arctic Circle (66°30' N).

In the framework of the altitudinal gradation of mountainous ecology, the forest-tundra corresponds to the krummholz and prostrate shrub zones.

Larger cities within the ecozone include Murmansk, Vorkuta, Norilsk, and Tiksi.

Tundra
In physical geography, a tundra (/ˈtʌndrə, ˈtʊn-/) is a type of biome where tree growth is hindered by frigid temperatures and short growing seasons. There are three regions and associated types of tundra: Arctic, Alpine, and Antarctic.

Tundra vegetation is composed of dwarf shrubs, sedges, grasses, mosses, and lichens. Scattered trees grow in some tundra regions. The ecotone (or ecological boundary region) between the tundra and the forest is known as the tree line or timberline. The tundra soil is rich in nitrogen and phosphorus. The soil also contains large amounts of biomass and decomposed biomass that has been stored as methane and carbon dioxide in the permafrost, making the tundra soil a carbon sink. As global warming heats the ecosystem and causes soil thawing, the permafrost carbon cycle accelerates and releases much of these soil-contained greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, creating a feedback cycle that contributes to climate change.
