The Atlantic coastal pine barrens is a temperate coniferous forest ecoregion of the northeastern United States distinguished by its nutrient-poor, often acidic soils and a pine tree distribution naturally controlled by frequent fires. ==Setting== This ecoregion covers a disjunct area of 8,975 km2 including the New Jersey Pine Barrens on the coastal plain of New Jersey, and smaller areas of southern Long Island in New York State, and on Cape Cod in Massachusetts. The pine barrens are underlain by sandy, nutrient-poor soils, which typically support stunted forests dominated by pines (''Pinus'' spp.). The distinct flora of this ecoregion is maintained by the poor soils and frequent fires which revive the pines; surrounding areas with better soils are part of the Northeastern coastal forests ecoregion.
