Abstract: Ecological units of different sizes for predictive modeling of resource productivity and ecological response to management need to be identified and mapped. A set of criteria for subdividing a landscape into ecosystem units of different sizes is presented, based on differences in factors important in differentiating ecosystems at varying scales in a hierarchy. Practical applications of such units are discussed.
