Located some 500 km from the British Columbia coastline, Canada\u2019s 16.4 million ha Interior Wetbelt\u00a0biome, which consists of several forest types, most notably inland temperate forests (~10% of the total\u00a0area), is pressed against the western flanks of the Rocky Mountains and juxtaposed with the more distant\u00a0<\/span>Coastal Mountains to the west. Importantly, the inland temperate rainforest portion is globally distinctive as one of only three inland temperate-boreal rainforest regions worldwide (the others are in Southern Siberia and the Russian Far East).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
