The purpose of this book is specific and ambitious: to outline the
distinctive elements, scope, and usefulness of a new and emerging
field of applied ecology named warfare ecology. Based on a NATO
Advanced Research Workshop held on the island of Vieques, Puerto
Rico, the book provides both a theoretical overview of this new
field and case studies that range from mercury contamination during
World War I in Slovenia to the ecosystem impacts of the Palestinian
occupation, and from the bombing of coral reefs of Vieques to
biodiversity loss due to violent conflicts in Africa. Warfare
Ecology also includes reprints of several classical papers that set
the stage for the new synthesis described by the authors. Written
for environmental scientists, military and humanitarian relief
professionals, conservation managers, and graduate students in a
wide range of fields, Warfare Ecology is a major step forward in
understanding the relationship between war and ecological systems.
