This volume describes the relationships between non-living and living elements as they actually occur in the Nova Scotia landscape. This is achieved by use of a geographical classification system of regions, districts, and units that are defined according to distinctive landscape characteristics. Information presented for the various levels of classification includes geology, landscape development, soils, plants, animals, cultural features, climate, hydrology, and scenic quality. Includes glossary and index.
