Map of the Yukon Flats ecoregion

Map of the Yukon Flats ecoregion. The ecoregion boundary is based on the Ecoregions of Alaska map (Gallant et al., 1995).  The Landsat TM mosaic of six scenes is displayed as a false color composite (RGB = 5, 4, 3). The red polygon outlines the coverage of airborne lidar data. The orange circles indicate the field plots near Canvasback Lake (a), Hat Lake (b), and Boot Lake (c). The map insert shows the location of the Yukon Flats ecoregion within the state of Alaska.
