Botany BC 2000 planning is well underway. Accommodation and meals will be provided by Big Bar Guest Ranch, which is an approximate half hour drive from the ferry.

Climate diagrams are brief summaries of climatic variables and their seasonal variation.
In biological and geological sciences climate diagrams have been used to show the relationship between soils, vegetation and climate. In agriculture, horticulture, and forestry, they can be used to indicate the range for certain crops, trees, weeds, or cultivated plants. In the climate diagrams the monthly average temperatures are plotted together with the total monthly precipitation in the scale where 10 deg. C of average temperature correspond to 20 mm of total precipitation. The diagrams also show frost periods.
