False.

The principal difference is temperature/latitude and related seasonality and biodiversity. Tropical rainforests are warm year‑round with very high biodiversity, while temperate rainforests are cooler, often seasonal, and have different plant communities (e.g., large conifers, mosses). Both receive high precipitation.
