THE DISTRIBUTION OF STRING BOGS IN CENTRAL CANADA IN RELATION TO CLIMATE.
The distribution of string bogs in Central Canada was mapped and compared with specific climatic parameters in the region to estimate their potential usefulness as climatic indicators. The string bog distribution was determined along a series of flight lines made during June and October, 1963. As a...
