| وصف الكتاب | Ecological restoration projects seek to recover the natural functioning of degraded ecosystems, most often areas disturbed by human large scale projects such as agriculture developments, road building, mining and urban sprawl. While scientists focus on the ecological basis of habitat repair, practitioners, governmental and non-governmental organizations, and local people, tend to worry about social, economic, cultural and political aspects. The value of ecological restoration is discussed here with examples including tropical forests in Vietnam and Australia; degraded environments in China as a paradigm of global issues; the restoration of wetlands and the coastal zone and how to proceed with urban developments. The author also uniquely assesses how ecological restoration can be used against the impacts of climate change. In addition to strategies for extending ecological restoration at global scale, it provides useful ideas and tools for the everyday work of professionals,researchers and students. |
| المراجعة التحريرية | ... a sound introduction to ecological restoration.' Bulletin of the British Ecological Society "The range of case studies is welcome and inspires confidence in restoration schemes while emphasizing the uniqueness of each situation. Chapters on ecosystem modeling and the value of restoration as a means of promoting inter-group co-operation are fitting ends to this book which provides a sound introduction to ecological restoration. The case studies give cause for optimism as they reflect the ability of society to redress environmental abuse and show that adverse human impact can be addressed positively." Antoinette Mannion, Bulletin of the British Ecological Society "...the diverse ideas about ecological restoration are readily accessible to the nonspecialist. The extensive list of citations is of particular value. Recommended." CHOICE |
