How the living hell do you expect the viewers of this video to comprehend the knowledge you are presenting while you are talking at 20 words per second. You literally have to pause the video every five seconds to understand what the hell the narrator said about a single tree. This is a great visual but if I was watching this without pausing I will not attain any knowledge from this. This video makes my life seem like a utter hell, it makes me want to drop out of high school; and I am in my final few months. Teachers if you view this comment and are happening to give this assignment to students, do not; you are about to make the thirty minutes of this child a living hell. Instead just give them pages of a textbook to read, because that much more knowledge they would gain than viewing this video.

first: thanks a lot for your work! :-) essential to keep nature present for all those alienated city dwellers occupied with their narrow, destructive lives! second: I read that the mediterranean was densly wooded, and that it was the ancient ship industry and even the fire wood consumption of the roman thermal baths that turned them into scrub lands. so wouldn't these historical human activities be worth mentioning (as you mentioned that the savannahs of africa may be a result of human caused burning) because they foreshadow what's coming. :-(

I live in the Suburban Connecticut biome, a mix of Savannah grass and weeds, temperate Forrest both deciduous and evergreen trees, scrubland all crisscrossed by stretches and areas of concrete and asphalt. I've seen plenty of deer, black bears, wild turkeys, golden eagles, hummingbirds, coyotes, rabbits, frogs, crows, bats, skunks, raccoons, squirrels, mice, chipmunk, foxes, groundhogs, woodchuck, and more. Owls, hawks, ducks.

Yay for fynbos family of plants and rooibos tea! I've wondered before if you transplanted the pioneer species and built up a relatively small fynbos family in south texas if you could grow rooibos. We love teas and tisanes, so it's interesting to figure out places that you can grow camellia sinensis (tea, rooibos, chamomile, ginger, turmeric, etc etc with as much overlap as possible. Nice additions in this video

A well presented introduction to this fascinating biome. I-m a resident of San Diego County, California, which has tremendous biodiversity amidst a variety of different shrubland types. During a wet winter some areas can appear almost lush. By the end of the annual summer drought the landscape takes on a somewhat barren and harsh look. Unfortunately little remains of undisturbed coastal chaparral.

It is worth noting that the -scrub zone- in southern Australia (near Adelaide and Esperance in southwest) is still mostly filled with medium sized eucalyptus trees. Australia very barely has a true scrubland like those found in Chile and southern California. And when there are scrubs, the land is basically a desert (like in the centre of AUS.

I've enjoyed this episode a lot! Thanks for preparing such beautiful and consistent work Ben! It is a very complex biome, having many factors of influence, including fire. I was really surprised about the extent biodiversity of South African Shrublands, with lots of endemic floristic species in such little and isolated area.

I love scrub land, this type of environment together with tropical rain forests and coastal hot wetlands are the places where I grew up as well as lived in extensively in my travels around the world. I prefer them to evergreen forests and savanna equally, love spending weeks alone out in the bush with no one in sight.

Interestingly, not all regions with a Mediterranean climate have this biome, such as the northwest of Portugal which, despite being Csb, has a short dry season and is very rainy during the rest of the year, so it has a biome more typical of Cfb regions.

Hi! I was born in the south of France, in the middle of the -garrigue-, the local scrubland. I always loved this faboulus landscape, its tortured trees, its numerous animals, its scortching temperatures in summer, its incredible perfumes. All my childhood.

Another excellent video! I really appreciate how you showcased plants from similar regions around the world, I'm sure it took a lot of time to research. I'm always very excited to see when one of your videos pops up in my feed.

Chaco Region (wich is for the most part a low forest, only decimated by the human deforestation in recent decades) labeled as a -shrubland- doesn't seem to be that precise. The same applies to Andhra Pradesh

As someone who has lived in Greece his whole life, this biome is so familiar to me it's almost nostalgic. Half of those shots look like places I've walked through and the other half like places I've driven past

Geo, is there something that can extend the summers into the shoulder seasons without making mid-summer too hot, while simultaneously making the winter cold, probably making the winter same as in Moscow?

Wow. Thank you. As a scrublander & historian, I just wondered how these biomes came up with world-changing ideas even beyond the fertile river civilizations. .. (You know who I'm talking about.

Man, I love these videos. I'm from Sweden but I lived in Santa Barbara for a few years so this episode is the first one that's somewhat familiar, although I adore rain forests above all else.

Yep, grew up in Southern California, this is very accurate. There's trees but only what people have planted. Also the palms that line the streets of LA aren't native to California either.

Hi everyone! I hope you enjoyed this tour of this often overlooked, but surprisingly biodiverse landscape. Please let me know of your experiences of living in the scrub or visiting it!

Actually there is a lot of forests in Mediterranean climate cause as you know. Mediterranean regions are mountaines. Some endemic trees like Cedar and Pine forests exist

Stock footage from the CFA in reference to fires in Adelaide. I know, I'm picking. Victoria and South Australia have an arbitrary border that makes no geological sence.
