Atlantic Maritime Ecozone

Hello hello! And welcome to Remax 101. Today we will be talking to you about the Atlantic Maritime Ecozone!

We’ll start out by telling you some key facts that might help you decide whether or not to choose this superb waterfront location.

The Atlantic Maritime ecozone is located on the eastern side of Canada. This ecozone covers the provinces of New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island. It also covers Iles-de-la-Madeleine and part of Quebec extending from the Gaspe Peninsula, south westerly through the Appalachian complex of eastern Quebec to the U.S border south of Sherbrook.

Buying this piece of land would mean you have 2% of Canada all to yourself! What a deal! A great chance to meet all them lovable Newfies and even work on that accent eh?

But back to our pitch…strike 1, 2, 3, sold to-

Wait we haven’t told them anything about the Atlantic Maritime Ecozone!

Oh yah…my bad

Back to what I was saying, the land is covered by glacial till. Humo-ferric podzols are the dominant soil. In the coastal areas, there is deeper more fertile Luvisolic soils exist. They are formed on surface materials derived from the underlying sedimentary bedrock.

Oh and don’t forget about the climate, that’s one of the most appealing aspects to this exotic location!

We’re talking about Canada here…

But its on the water! Anyway, since it’s mostly a coastal region and the weather reflects that. It has a cooler summer compared to most other ecozones in Canada and a warmer winter. In the winter it averages about -5 degrees Celsius and in the summer it averages about 14 degrees Celsius.

Hey that’s really nice!

I know! No wonder 2 510 000 people live there! Well back to the climate, the coastal areas are often different from the inland, because of the moisture from the ocean. There’s an average precipitation fall of 900 mm a year inland and 1500 mm near the coast.

With all that climate change, you’re probably wondering where all the water would drain. The main drainage basins for this ecozone include the St. Lawrence River and the Atlantic Ocean. Almost 83% of all the precipitation run off into rivers. So Orlee, you were aobut to talk about the wildlife correct?

Indeed I was! There’s three main productive offshore areas in this ecozone the Scotian shelf, the Bay of Fundy, and the Gulf of St. Lawrence. These areas as well as others hold a large variety of important terrestrial fresh water, and marine environments. In this glorious ecozone the main wildlife includes fish, geese, teal, duck, and 31 other bird species. Other wildlife includes wolves, mink, the occasional linx. Terrestrial animals include black bears, bobcats, snowshoe hare, northern fluting squirrel and white tailed deer.

Well you can’t have animals without having vegetation! Most of the forests are composed of coniferous and deciduous trees, characterized by red spruce, balsam fir, yellow birch, sugar maple, red and white pine, also eastern hemlock is not very common.

Speaking of forests, without forests the citizens of the towns would be pretty much unemployed. If you act now, and send in your money quickley you can pick yourself up a very usefull, very practical, spacing saw. If you’re a person who just loves cutting trees, this saw is perfect for you! A lot of the population in the atlantic maritime ecozone rely on the forestry industries. But that’s not all, people also have jobs doing agricultural work.
