Would the Hudson plains climate be considered Continental or Maritime climate?
Continental A continental climate is a climate that is characterized by winter temperatures cold enough to support a fixed period of snow cover each year, and relatively moderate precipitation occurring mostly in summer, although east coast areas chiefly in North America may show an even distribution of precipitation. Regions containing a continental climate exist in portions of the Northern Hemisphere continents especially North America and Asia, and also at higher elevations in other parts of the world. Maritime is associated with oceanic or an ocean coastal climate. Maritime refers to salt water sources and Hudson Bay is brackish water or a combination of salt and fresh water due to terrestrial runoff entering the bay. Hudson Bay has a salinity that is lower than the world ocean on average. Continental climate is my choice for the climate of the Hudson Plains ecoregion. Check out the links below. Hope this helps.
