The timber line, also known as the tree line, is the elevation above which trees are unable to grow due to harsh environmental conditions such as cold temperatures, strong winds, and lack of nutrients. This line varies by latitude and climate, generally occurring at higher altitudes in polar regions and lower altitudes in tropical areas. Beyond the timber line, vegetation typically consists of shrubs, grasses, and other hardy plants adapted to the extreme conditions.
