High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Moorland or moor is a type of habitat found in upland areas, characterised by low growing vegetation on acidic soils. Moorland nowadays generally means uncultivated hill land, but the Old English mor also refers to low-lying wetlands. It is closely related to heath although experts disagree on precisely what distinguishes the types of vegetation. Oliver Rackham points out that long-term general usage has been that moors are used to describe highland, whereas heath refers to lowland zones which are more likely to be the result of human activity. Moorland habitats are most extensive in the neotropics and tropical Africa but also occur in northern and western Europe, Northern Australia, North America, Central Asia, and the Indian subcontinent. Most of the world's moorlands are very diverse ecosystems. In the extensive moorlands of the tropics species diversity can be extremely high. Moorland also bears a relationship to tundra appearing as the tundra retreats and inhabiting the area between the permafrost and the natural tree zone. The boundary between tundra and moorland constantly shifts with climatic change.
