Applying Soil Ecological Knowledge to Restore Ecosystem Services
Ecosystem degradation resulting from resource extraction, land-use change, and invasion by exotic species alters numerous functions and services provided by intact and unexploited ecosystems. Ecological restoration is the human-facilitated improvement of a degraded ecosystem and represents an important means to repair or reinstate many natural services in degraded ecosystems ( Table 5.6.1 ). Re...
متن کاملScience for managing ecosystem services: Beyond the Millennium Ecosystem Assessment.
The Millennium Ecosystem Assessment (MA) introduced a new framework for analyzing social-ecological systems that has had wide influence in the policy and scientific communities. Studies after the MA are taking up new challenges in the basic science needed to assess, project, and manage flows of ecosystem services and effects on human well-being. Yet, our ability to draw general conclusions rema...
متن کاملInterdisciplinary research for managing ecosystem services.
L ike all good assessments, the Millennium Ecosystem Assessment (MA) provided a state-ofthe-art summary of relevant knowledge, in this case, of the state and trends of the world’s ecosystems. The MA went further by developing a novel framework for analyzing the fundamental relationship between the well-being of human societies and the ecosystem services on which we depend (1). In this issue of ...
متن کاملObscuring ecosystem function with application of the ecosystem services concept.
Conservationists commonly have framed ecological concerns in economic terms to garner political support for conservation and to increase public interest in preserving global biodiversity. Beginning in the early 1980s, conservation biologists adapted neoliberal economics to reframe ecosystem functions and related biodiversity as ecosystem services to humanity. Despite the economic success of pro...
متن کاملUsing ecosystem engineers to restore ecological systems.
Ecosystem engineers affect other organisms by creating, modifying, maintaining or destroying habitats. Despite widespread recognition of these often important effects, the ecosystem engineering concept has yet to be widely used in ecological applications. Here, we present a conceptual framework that shows how consideration of ecosystem engineers can be used to assess the likelihood of restorati...
