Cloud forests are a type of evergreen mountain forest found in tropical areas, where local conditions cause cloud and mist to be frequently in contact with the forest vegetation. One of their most obvious features is an abundance of mosses, ferns, orchids and other epiphytic plants on every tree and rock surface. The definition of a cloud forest is not straightforward. For the purposes of the Mountain Cloud Forest Initiative and the production of cloud forest maps, the definition produced by the 1993 International Tropical Mountain Cloud Forest (TMCF) Symposium has been used.
