Ecological restoration is a rapidly evolving discipline that is
engaged with developing both methodologies and strategies for
repairing damaged and polluted ecosystems and environments. During
the last decade the rapid pace of climate change coupled with
continuing habitat destruction and the spread of non-native species
to new habitats has forced restoration ecologists to re-evaluate
their goals and the methods they use. This comprehensive handbook
brings together an internationally respected group of established
and rising experts in the field. The book begins with a description
of current practices and the state of knowledge in particular areas
of restoration, and then identifies new directions that will help
the field achieve increasing levels of future success. Part I
provides basic background about ecological and environmental
restoration. Part II systematically reviews restoration in key
ecosystem types located throughout the world. In Part III,
management and policy issues are examined in detail, offering the
first comprehensive treatment of policy relevance in the field,
while Part IV looks to the future. Ultimately, good ecological
restoration depends upon a combination of good science, policy,
planning and outreach - all issues that are addressed in this
unrivalled volume.
