BEC Site Series - Attribute Catalogue
A list of the site series ecological units of the current biogeoclimatic ecosystem classification. It is consistent with the biogeoclimatic subzone/variant map (BEC_BIOGEOCLIMATIC_POLY, version 13.1, July 8, 2026). Site series are subdivisions of the biogeoclimatic subzone/variant, and describe sites capable of producing the same mature or climax vegetation unit (plant association or sometimes, subassociation). Site series are described in the Regional Field Guides to Site Identification. Site and soil conditions, and the vegetation community, are used to identify site series
