Land/water classification : a review of water classifications and proposals for water integration into ecological land classification / D.M. Welch.: En73-3/5E-PDF
"Apart from its value to nearly all human activity and settlement, water is one of the major land cover types in Canada. Sound planning of an area and its natural resources therefore requires basic data on landforms, soils, vegetation, wildlife, climate and water. However, while many ecological land surveys have been conducted in Canada, few include water information in their data bases. I propose that this omission be rectified, following the principles outlined in this paper"--Abstract.
