The maps can also be used to study things like ecotones, the boundary between two habitat types, species dispersal and the migration patterns, and even determine when a species was found in a new area.

这些地图还可以用来研究过渡带，息地类型之间边界，物扩散和迁移模式，甚至可以确定个物何时在个新地区被发现。

The park's subtropical climate can support species from around the world, and its borders are full of ecotones — transition areas between habitats — that connect the region's freshwater prairies, rocky pinelands, mangrove forests, and more.

国家亚热带气候能够维系来自世界各地物生存，边界遍布生态过渡带，即各生物息地之间过渡区域，这些生态过渡带将当地淡水草原、岩石松林地、红树林等连接起来。
