The boreal forest forms a wide circum-polar swath covering extensive regions of Canada, Scandinavia, and Siberia. This biome provides natural functioning to regulate numerous atmospheric and hydrologic processes while providing habitat for many species of flora and fauna. Susceptible to extensive natural disturbances (e.g. fire, insects, wind), these northern forests are effectively described as forming a heterogeneous dynamic landscape mosaic. Additionally, the vast boreal forest represents a renewable natural resource that results in extensive harvesting operations for extracting timber and wood fiber; thus further altering the mosaic through anthropogenic influences.

北方森林形成了一片广阔的绕极地带，覆盖了加拿大、斯堪的纳维亚半岛和西伯利亚的大片地区。 这一生物群落提供了调节许多大气和水文过程的自然功能，同时为许多植物群和动物群物种提供了生境。 这些北方森林易受广泛的自然干扰（如火灾、昆虫、风）的影响，被有效地描述为形成了一个异质的动态景观镶嵌图。 此外，广阔的北方森林是一种可再生的自然资源，导致广泛的采伐作业，用于提取木材和木纤维;从而通过人为影响进一步改变了马赛克。
