Cenograms are used to draw conclusions about a biome's characteristics, including whether it is species rich, its relative humidity, and its level of forestation.
Notes on verification
Multiple independent peer-reviewed and academic sources confirm cenograms are used as intended tools to infer biome traits like species richness, humidity, and forestation. However, some sources note the statistical reliability of these inferences is debated, so confidence reflects agreement on purpose/definition rather than proven efficacy.
