Wetlands occur throughout Canada and are the types of ecosystems and habitats that most Canadian can readily associate with. Their specific geography and types like peatlands vary to some degree in each of Canada’s 15 ecozones. These maps show how wetlands and peatlands vary spatiality and according to factors such as types or quantities.

This sub-folder contains various maps concerning the distribution, quantity and types of peatlands/wetlands. These maps may portray peatlands/wetlands according to ecosytem types, soil types, and administrative boundaries. Different levels of map generalizations (i.e. broad zones through sub-regional scales) may be used.
