Non-treed wetland as percentage of total area, by ecoprovince, 2020

Map description

The title of the map is "Non-treed wetland as percentage of total area, by ecoprovince, 2020"

This map provides a visual representation of the proportion of non-treed wetlands in each ecoprovince.

The figure is a map of Canada, with ecoprovince boundaries represented by thin grey lines and ecozone boundaries represented by thick black lines. There is a legend in the top right corner and a scale bar in the bottom left corner. Ecoprovinces are labelled.

The 53 ecoprovinces of Canada are categorized in one of five classes, according to the percentage of non-treed wetland. The Hudson Bay Coastal Plains, Hudson-James Lowlands and Hay-Slave Lowlands have the highest percentage of non-treed wetlands. Meanwhile, ecoprovinces located along the west coast, in the Maritime provinces, southwestern Ontario and Quebec, and the High Arctic have less than 5% of their area as non-treed wetlands.

Legend: Ecoprovinces are represented using a colour gradient from pale green to dark green. The shading intensity varies, with pale green representing ecoprovinces where less than 5% of the total ecoprovince area is non-treed wetland and dark green representing ecoprovinces with 30% to 64% of the area as non-treed wetland.

Note(s): Ecoprovinces are labelled. Ecoprovinces are subdivisions of ecozones and are identified with a unique numeric code. The first two digits of the ecoprovince code indicate the ecozone.
