General Characteristics
Microorganisms and bacteria find the rain forest as a perfect home because of its hot and humid conditions. These organisms quickly decompose matter on the forest floor. The soil is infertile and acidic. The tropical rainforest is included in the tropical wet climate group. Tropical rainforests have more types of trees than any other kind of forests or area in the world. Now, rainforests cover less than 6% of the Earth's surface. The rainforest has been home to many tribes such as the Yanomamo in South America, and Pamagirri in Australia.

Catastrophic events
They can also flood. Flooding isn't caused by loggers though, it is a natural event caused by the height of the land the Rainforest is on, and how much it rains.
