Vermont Biophysical Regions

The updated VT's Biophyscial Region Map (Ferree 2008), with 9 regions, replaces the older 8 region version from the VT Biodiversity Project (1998). The new biophysical region is the Champlain Hills, a section split off from the northeastern part of the former (now smaller) Champlain Valley region. The biophysical regions are a key aspect of the Vermont Conservation Design that is displayed in BioFinder. The updated and improved map should be used for all land use and planning puposes.
