| description:

Ecoregions denote areas of general similarity in ecosystems and in the type,
quality, and quantity of environmental resources. They are designed to serve as a
spatial framework for the research, assessment, management, and monitoring of
ecosystems and ecosystem components. By recognizing the spatial differences in
the capacities and potentials of ecosystems, ecoregions stratify the environment
by its probable response to disturbance (Bryce and others, 1999). Ecoregions are
general purpose regions that are critical for structuring and implementing
ecosystem management strategies across federal agencies, state agencies, and
nongovernment organizations that are responsible for different types of resources
in the same geographical areas (Omernik and others, 2000). |
