"Vegetation zones of Canada: a biogeoclimatic perspective maps Canadian geography in relation to gradients of regional climate, as expressed by potential vegetation on zonal sites. Compared to similar national scale-products, Vegetation zones of Canada benefits from the work of provincial and territorial ecological classification programs over the last 30+ years, incorporating this regional knowledge of ecologically significant climatic gradients into a harmonized national map. This new map, reflecting vegetation and soils adapted to climates prior to approximately 1960, can serve as a broad-scale (approximately 1:5 M to 1:10 M) geospatial reference for monitoring and modeling effects of climatic changes on Canadian ecosystems"--Abstract, page 3.
