| Abstract: |
This atlas is an ecological assessment of the mid-Atlantic region of the United States. The assessment was done using measurements derived from satellite imagery and spatial data bases. The information presented in this atlas is intended to help the reader visualize and understand the changing conditions across the region, and how the pattern of conditions can be used as a context for community-level situations. This atlas does not provide site-specific analyses of small areas such as individual woodlots. This atlas was developed as part of the Environmental Monitoring and Assessment Program (EMAP), and is part of a larger, multi-organizational effort to assess environmental condition in the mid-Atlantic region. |
