| Résumé | (disponible en anglais seulement)
This open file provides an inventory of open sand areas, including active dunes and blowouts throughout the provinces of Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba. The
inventory and database were prepared to fulfill specific requests for identification of habitat for species reliant on native open sand. The accompanying spreadsheet in Excel and dBase format can be used in a GIS to place areas of active dunes onto
digital maps for referencing. In addition, files provided in KMZ format may be imported into Google Earth for locating areas of active sand within sand hills areas. The primary purpose of this inventory is to approximate the location and size of
native open sand in the Prairie Provinces for present and future reference, given the rapid rates of historical stabilization of these sandy areas. |
