Ontario arctic watershed / C.L.A. Hutton and W.A. Black.: En73-2/2E-PDF

"This paper is concerned with one of the most characteristic of Canadian landscapes; the region of the northern boreal forest, and specifically, the Ontario arctic watershed. The region is marked by serious socio-economic disparities that arise from the physical limitations imposed by climate and by the physiographical base of the region. The physical factors have contributed to the paucity of agricultural soils, to the extensive areas of muskeg and poorly drained land, to the fragmented forest stands and to the sparse distribution and localization of population"--Preface.
