The ecology and successional trends of tundra plant communities in the low arctic subalpine zone of the Richardson and British Mountains of the Canadian Western Arctic ...
Prior to 1963 no previous vegetation studies had been undertaken in this region of the Low Arctic Subalpine/Foothill Zone of the Canadian Western Arctic, although several studies had been completed in similar regions in Arctic Alaska. This study was initiated in 1965 to obtain quantitative and quali...

Prior to 1963 no previous vegetation studies had been undertaken in this region of the Low Arctic Subalpine/Foothill Zone of the Canadian Western Arctic, although several studies had been completed in similar regions in Arctic Alaska.

With these basic data it was considered possible to analyze, integrate and interpret community and soil relationships and to propose a usable classification system for the recognizable ecosystematic units in this portion of the zone.
