The Chinese Vegetation Regionalization Data is sourced from the 1:1,000,000 vegetation map. Vegetation regionalization involves dividing a certain area into distinct zones characterized by relatively consistent vegetation combinations, based on vegetation types and their geographical distribution features. Vegetation zones are spatially complete, continuous, and non-repeating geographical units of vegetation types or their combinations. Theoretically, the vegetation regional differentiation across various regions of the Earth, as revealed through vegetation regionalization, can indicate the regularity of vegetation geographical distribution and its relationship with the environment, providing a regional or global vegetation geographical pattern. It also helps to determine the position of a specific area within a vegetation belt and its corresponding relationship with surrounding zones, thereby enabling a deeper understanding of the vegetation essence in that area. In practice, vegetation regionalization serves as one of the primary bases for comprehensive natural regionalization, natural ecological regionalization, and agricultural regionalization. The development, utilization, management, and protection of regional vegetation, as well as the advancement of agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry, and sideline occupations, should also be conducted based on vegetation zoning. For regional planning, vegetation zoning should likewise be considered an important scientific basis.
