Description
Ecological restoration has gained significant momentum in recent years as the scientific community recognizes the need to protect and restore natural ecosystems to mitigate the devastating effects of climate change and biodiversity loss. This book provides a comprehensive overview of ecological restoration, covering topics such as grasslands, wetlands, forests, and arid zones, as well as human-disturbed landscapes like urban areas, farmlands, and transport corridors. The authors emphasize the importance of evidence-based approaches that are socially inclusive and cognizant of community sentiment. They highlight the need for practical guidelines developed from restoration evaluations to ensure future efforts are successful in achieving ambitious landscape and continental scale targets. With a focus on both ecological and social aspects, this book offers valuable insights into the complexities of ecological restoration. By exploring the latest developments and best practices in ecological restoration, this book provides a crucial resource for those involved in or interested in this field.
