This map shows a simplified distribution of land cover types across Canada interpreted from satellite data obtained in 1995. Land cover has an important role in the water cycle as it significantly affects evapotranspiration and the amount of water leaving a watershed. Evapotranspiration is the sum of evaporation and transpiration, both of which are related to types of land cover. Plants with larger surface area and deeper roots have greater transpiration.
