An ecological characterization is a description of the important components and processes comprising an ecosystem and an understanding of their functional relationships. Such a characterization should include information on the biotic resources important to man(including important features of their habitat) and key biotic processes(e. g., climate, and transport mechanisms). An ecological characterization is an early step in an environmental assessment, and it depends primarily on information from reconnaissance surveys and the published material, co-ordinated by a conceptual modelling exercise. 1, record 17, English, - biotic%20resource
