Pour cueillir les données relatives aux composantes biotiques et abiotiques du milieu forestier, le Québec effectue notamment des inventaires écologiques, aux fins desquels il distingue quatre niveaux de perception : la région écologique, le district écologique, le type écologique et le type forestier. [...] Le district écologique est une subdivision de la région écologique dans laquelle les caractéristiques du relief (altitude, pente, etc.), la nature et la distribution des dépôts de surface, le substratum rocheux et l'hydrographie forment un «pattern» spécifique. 3, record 1, French, - district%20%C3%A9cologique
