Summary:

"This field guide presents site classification and identification information for ecosystems following the Biogeoclimatic Ecosystem Classification (BEC) system (described in Chapter 2). It is part of a four-volume series for south-east British Columbia that updates the biogeoclimatic and site classification previously published for the former Nelson Forest Region (Braumandl and Curran 1992, Braumandl and Dykstra 2005) and for parts of the former Kamloops Forest Region (lloyd et al. 1990). The areas covered in this volume are shown in Figure 1.1, and include extensive areas in the Shuswap and Okanagan Highlands and souther Monashee Mountains, and smaller area in Norns Range of the Selkirk Mountains and in the Thompson Plateau. The area corresponds to all of the Boundary Timber Supply Area (TSA) and large areas within the Okanagan and Arrow TSAs and Tree Farm Licences 8, 23, 49, and 59."-- from publisher.
