Location of the 147 forest
permanent sample plots (white circles) located above the 50th parallel, and
meteorological stations (black circles) used to generate climatic conditions at
each plot. Note that several plot locations are superimposed due to the map
scale. The shaded area corresponds to the black spruce-moss bioclimatic domain,
while the grey hatched line corresponds to the limit of the current managed
forest area in Quebec, Canada.
