| EPA Level III Ecoregions for Alaska | Alaska Level III Shapefile (3 MB) | EPA Ecoregions | Ecoregions are essentially equivalent to the more archaic "physiographic provinces." Ecoregions do combine landscape and vegetation variables, but have less detail about vegetation when compared to "land cover" or "forest type" datasets. Topography plays a prominent role. |
