Ecological_Regions_of_North_America_Level_2 (FeatureServer)

View In:   Map Viewer

Service Description: This feature layer, utilizing data from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), depicts Level II Ecoregions of North America. Ecoregions denote areas of general similarity in ecosystems and in the type, quality, and quantity of environmental resources. The 50 level II ecological regions that have been delineated are intended to provide a more detailed description of the large ecological areas nested within the level I regions. For example, the Tropical Wet Forests of level I is the region covering coastal portions of the United States and Mexico, and is composed of six level II regions. Level II ecological regions are useful for national and subcontinental overviews of ecological patterns. Three level I regions (Hudson Plains, Marine West Coast Forest, and Mediterranean California) have no subdivisions at level II. The Temperate Sierras, Tropical Dry Forests, and Tropical Wet Forests level I regions, on the other hand, each have six level II subdivisions.
