The Atlantic Maritime Ecozone, as defined by the Commission for Environmental Cooperation (CEC), is an ecozone which covers the Canadian provinces of Prince Edward Island, Nova Scotia, and New Brunswick, as well as the Gaspé Peninsula of Quebec. It is adjacent to the Atlantic Marine Ecozone to the east, and the Mixedwood Plains to the west. The roughly-corresponding Level I Ecoregion to this ecozone in the United States Environmental Protection Agency's classification, which is also part of the CEC system, is the Northern Forests ecoregion, though that classification includes the woodlands and swamps of northern Michigan and Minnesota, which are adjacent to the Boreal Shield ecozone.

  • De Atlantische maritieme ecozone, zoals gedefinieerd door de Commissie voor Milieusamenwerking (CEC), is een ecozone die de Canadese Maritieme Provincies (Prins Edwardeiland, Nova Scotia en New Brunswick) en het schiereiland Gaspésie (Quebec) omvat. Het grenst aan de Atlantische maritieme ecozone in het oosten en de Mixedwood Plains in het westen. De Ecoregio van Niveau I die ruwweg overeenkomt met deze ecozone in de classificatie van het Amerikaanse Environmental Protection Agency (die ook deel uitmaakt van het CEC-systeem) is de Northern Forests ecoregio. Hoewel die classificatie ook de bossen en moerassen van het noorden van Michigan en Minnesota omvat, die grenzen aan de Boreal Shield ecozone. De nabijheid van de zee heeft een grote invloed op het landschap en klimaat. (nl)

  • The Atlantic Maritime Ecozone, as defined by the Commission for Environmental Cooperation (CEC), is an ecozone which covers the Canadian provinces of Prince Edward Island, Nova Scotia, and New Brunswick, as well as the Gaspé Peninsula of Quebec. It is adjacent to the Atlantic Marine Ecozone to the east, and the Mixedwood Plains to the west. The roughly-corresponding Level I Ecoregion to this ecozone in the United States Environmental Protection Agency's classification, which is also part of the CEC system, is the Northern Forests ecoregion, though that classification includes the woodlands and swamps of northern Michigan and Minnesota, which are adjacent to the Boreal Shield ecozone. The coastal areas are generally cooler in summer and warmer in winter than the inland regions, with richer soils suitable for farming. Hence, coastal communities have the greatest concentration of the zone's 2.5 million inhabitants. The largest urban area in this ecozone is Halifax. (en)

De nabijheid van de zee heeft een grote invloed op het landschap en klimaat. De kustgebieden zijn over het algemeen koeler in de zomer en warmer in de winter dan de binnenlanden, met rijkere gronden die geschikt zijn voor landbouw. De kustgemeenschappen hebben dus de grootste concentratie van de 2,5 miljoen inwoners van de zone. Het grootste stedelijke gebied in deze ecozone is Halifax. (nl)
