First published in 2005, this book examines the contribution of
planning and integrated landscape management to the process of
reversing the continuing deterioration of our natural environment.
Planning for integrated buffer zones is important to conserve
national parks, nature reserves, threatened habitats, other
ecologically sensitive areas and heritage sites. This book begins
with an examination of the role and nature of planning. It
identifies the main types of planning problems and details a
'model' planning process that can be usefully applied to resolve
them. Several theoretical and practical approaches to buffering
environmentally sensitive areas are evaluated and a classification
of existing approaches is detailed. Case studies are included to
illustrate and test some of these approaches. The book concludes by
recommending that integrated buffer zone planning should become a
standard tool in real-life environmental planning and management.
To facilitate this, an innovative approach to the design and
implementation of integrated buffers is offered, including a
step-by-step planning guide.
