- Title
- CLME: Marine Ecoregions of the Wider Caribbean
- Abstract
This layer displays marine ecoregions in and around the CLME+ region. Marine ecoregions are a biogeographic classification of the coastal and continental shelf waters. Hierarchically, nested above the marine ecoregion are realms and provinces.
Combining this layer with a land file will provide an approximate representation of the marine coverage of these marine ecoregions.
