The Factors and What They Do:
Rocks-they create homes for animals.
Soil-Provide a home for plants and animals.
Weather- Sunlight,Rain,Wind all help plants and animals survive
Sunlight- creates photosynthesis
Air-Gives oxygen for all species

Charts:
The driest month is August, with 23 mm of rainfall, most precipitation falls in March.
The warmest month is January, July has the lowest tempatures all year.
For every month, you will find data on precipitation, average, maximum and minimum temperature (degrees Celcius and Fahrenheit).
This chart shows humidity,hours of sunshine per day, rainfall and temperature.
Other Importance:
In tropical rainforestes there are four layers of soil the top layer is the
Emergent Layer- Tall trees live here they poke through the canopy to form the layer. Only trees with strong trunks and thick trees can survive this layer due to strong winds and the sun being so bright.
Second:
Canopy Layer- This layer forms a "roof" over the two upcoming layers. Many leaves and branches are in this layer along with many animals.
Third:
Understory Layer- Very little sunlight reaches this layer, causing plants to grow larger leaves to reach sunlight. Many insects live here, they create homes in small crankies and other small places.
Fourth:
Forest Floor Layer- Very dark and little to no plants grow in this layer. With no sunlight reaching this layer things decay quickly.
Soil Components:
include ultisols and oxisols. Ultisols are weathered acid red clay soils, Oxisols are red stable high weathered soil.

The Daintree Rainforest is a tropical rainforest in far North Queensland thats about 1200 km square. It is the largest rainforest in Australia, and also is protected by the World Heritage listing. Over the millions of years, the Daintree Rainforest has created its own, complicated ecosystem and relies on different parts of itself to survive. Its individual ecosystem is also due to its rare species of plants and animals.
