Champlain-Adirondak, UNESCO biosphere reserve across New York and Vermont, United States.
The Champlain-Adirondack Biosphere Network spans over 7 million acres, containing extensive coniferous forests, lakes, and freshwater wetlands across the northeastern United States.
The United States Department of State nominated this area in 1986, leading to its official UNESCO biosphere reserve designation in 1989.
Local communities engage in forestry and tourism activities in the Adirondack region, while agriculture and manufacturing characterize the Vermont side of Lake Champlain.
The reserve functions as an educational center with research facilities focusing on atmospheric pollutants, water quality, watershed management, and forest ecosystems.
This biosphere reserve signed a Joint Declaration of Environmental Ethics for Mountain Sustainability with Italian reserves to advance mountain ecosystem understanding.
