The Acadia Research Forest is located about 20 km north-east of Fredericton, New Brunswick. This areas has a long history for many research trials. The wet-areas map developed for this area, at 5 m resolution, provides a new geographic datalayer for the interpretation of past, ongoing and contemplated research trials.
