Implement and Analysis on Current Ecosystem Classification in Western Utah of the United States & Yukon Territory of Canada
Author: YanQing A. Zhang
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Electronic books
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
The study cases in western Utah of the United States and Yukon Territory of Canada have more natural land and conservative ecosystems in North America. The ecosystem classification of land (ECL) in these two ecoregions had been analyzed and validated through implementation. A full ECL case study was accomplished and examined with eight upper levels of ECOMAP plus ecological site and vegetation stand in Western Utah, the US. Theoretically, applying K√∂ppen climate system classification, Bailey,Äôs Domain and Division were applied to the United States, North America, and world continents. However, Canada,Äôs continental upper level ecoregion framework defined the ecological Mozaic on a sub-continental scale, representing an area of the hierarchical ecological units characterized by interactive and adjusting abiotic and biotic factors. Using Bailey,Äôs Domain as the top level of Canada,Äôs territorial ecoregion was recommended. Eight levels of ELCs were established for Yukon Territory, Canada. Thus, the second study case recommends integrating the ecosystem approaches with Bailey,Äôs upper level ECL, broad ecosystem classification, and objectively defined ecological site in different countries, or ecoregions. Our study cases had exemplified the implementations with a full ELCs in Bailey,Äôs 300 Dry Domain and 100 Polar Domain.

Category : Biotic communities
Languages : en
Pages : 102
Book Description
Fifty-six forested plant communities in the Lake Laberge Ecoregion, YukonTerritory, are described in terms of appearance, characteristic andassociated species, landform, soils successional status, and productivity. Aprimary objective was to describe the communities so that forest and landmanagers, land-use planners, environmental impact assessors, andd landscapearchitects could identify the communities in the field.

Birds of the Yukon Territory
Author: Pamela H. Sinclair
Publisher: UBC Press
ISBN: 0774844345
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 597
Book Description
The Yukon is a land of remarkable wilderness, diverse ecosystems, and profound beauty. It is also home to a unique assemblage of birds. As of 2002, 288 bird species have been documented in the Yukon, with 223 occurring regularly. They occupy an amazing range of habitats, from the most barren mountain peaks to lush valley bottom forests, and are an integral part of the cultural heritage of Yukon First Nations people. The vast areas of natural habitat with limited road access can make the study of birds challenging, but are key in defining the nature of birding in the Yukon. Birds of the Yukon Territory is the result of a decade-long project initiated to gather and share what is known about the Yukon's birdlife. Lavishly illustrated with 600 colour photographs and 223 hand-drawn bird illustrations, the book presents a wealth of information on bird distribution, migration and breeding chronology, nesting behaviour, and habitat use, and on conservation concerns. Two hundred and eighty-eight species of birds are documented, including 223 regular species, and 65 casual and accidental species. In compiling this meticulously researched volume, the authors consulted over 166,000 records in a database created by the Canadian Wildlife Service, with information dating back to 1861. S ections on birds in Aboriginal culture and history, and bird names in the Yukon First Nations and Inuvialuit languages, enhance the book, as do the numerous easily interpreted charts and graphs. Destined to become a basic reference work on the avifauna of the North, Birds of the Yukon Territory is a must-have for bird enthusiasts and anyone interested in the natural history of the Yukon and the North.
