Sedges of the Northern Forest – A Digital Atlas

Sedges of the Northern Forest – A Digital Atlas

A collection of 1,400 high resolution images, with descriptions, diagnostic diagrams, and ecological information for 217 species. Most images may be zoomed to full screen or beyond and still remain sharp. The Northern Forest Region lies between the oak forests of the eastern United States and the boreal forests of eastern Canada. It is, collectively, one of the largest and most continuous temperate forests left in the world and, like much of the biosphere, it is at risk. This guide is an essential companion for those interested in stewardship and conservation of the region. Through multi-image composite photos that allow for unparalleled depth and clarity, this unique guide illustrates the 236 varied and beautiful, and often overlooked, sedges of the Northern Forest. A complete online archive of images and articles, including digital atlases, is available at northernforestatlas.org.
