Abiotic factors are the non-living components of a biome. This includes climate and geological features such as rocks and minerals.

In temperate grasslands the temperatures range greatly between seasons. In winter it is very cold and in the summer the temperatures can reach up to and over 100 degrees Fahrenheit. This large range of temperature is caused mostly by the latitude of Temperate Grasslands which is about 30 degrees north or south of the equator. The yearly range of precipitation is 15-25 inches. Some other abiotic factors in a Temperate Grassland are the wildfires due to low precipitation and the rich soil that is idea for farming. [|Example of grassland fire]
