Productivity Note

• temperature and light and rainfall - support high productivity in biomes like temperate forest
• interaction with land and water lead to good productivity
• taiga isn't as productive as temperate forest because of the cold temperatures and sunlight
• main combo of light and water
• organic water pollution = oil spills
