"Landscape Ecology" is an emerging science of gaining momentum over
the past few decades in the scientific as well as in the
planning-management worlds. Although the field is rooted in biology
and geography, the approaches to understanding the ecology of a
landscape are highly divers. This hybrid vigor provides power to
the field. One can no longer view a local ecosystem or land use in
isolation from global areas and time frames. The surrounding
landscape mosaic and the flows and movements in a landscape must be
considered, especially the linkage between humans requiring
resources provided by nature, the constraints on their use as well
as the responding landscape.
